There must be a metal clip to disconnect GDT during hipot. Normally it is closed to input connector.
Other option is that manufacturer performs hipot on PCB with full value and on complete unit (in enclosure) with reduced value. Anyhow, I agree with Ralph. As PSU is tested separately, you can remove or disconnect it for routine testing on complete unit.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognise the sender and know the content is safe. Some PSUs may have a screw or a jumper to remove for hipot testing. Or you can hipot test your machine without the PSU connected, assuming the PSU has a 3rd party certification for electrical safety. Ralph From: Brian Kunde <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, June 24, 2024 5:20 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] HiPot Testing of 3-Phase PSU Question I understand that commercial products are %100 HiPot tested at the factory. Does this rule hold true for 3-phase industrial machinery? Here is why I am asking. I just pre-tested a German build 400-480Vac to 24Vdc power supply (DIN Rail Mount). It passed all the tests, except it failed the Phase-to-PE HiPot test at around 1000V. I tried both AC and DC voltage and tried connecting it from a single phase to PE and tried all phases connected together to PE. I tested a second power supply of the same model and it did the same exact thing. So I am thinking that it is supposed to perform this way. My concern is that in our factory, they will not be able to HiPot the final product when the power supply is installed. I assume the power supply has some kind of built in surge suppression. So how am I to use this PSU in my final product? Thoughts and comments would be appreciated. Best regards to all.
