Zohar, Put a jumper wire or connector in series with suppressors, allowing you to conduct Hi-Pot Test on the unit without stressing any of these components. The connection is resumed after placing jumper back on the board; unit shall not be able to operate without the jumper.

My question is how to conduct the production line Hi-Pot test ? It's unpractical to remove those components before testing in production !!
