Re: [PSES] Products requiring dielectric voltage withstand test on RJ45 and XLR sockets

Hi Chuck: I don't know why your lab wants to do the primary-circuits-to-ground hi-pot test to "unearthed socket terminals." I assume your secondary circuits are grounded, and, if so, the pins of sockets (RJ45 and XLR) are therefore referenced to ground and are subject to the

Re: [PSES] Products requiring dielectric voltage withstand test on RJ45 and XLR sockets

If you test that connector with the blunt test probe (aka finger probe) using the procedure described in the standard and it does not touch the connector pins (and you have minimum clearance) then your certifier should reconsider the dielectric test level. Many standards still use basic and
