1. ENSURE the 3 phase circuit breaker on power supply is switched OFF
2. Make the appropriate connection shown in Figure 1
3. Ensure the variable output voltage control is set to 0% on the Universal Power
Supply 60-105, then set the 3 phase curcuit breaker to the ON position.
4. Rotate the variable output voltage control until the voltmeter V1 indicates 150, 190
and 230 Vac.
5. Record all the measurement value in the Table 1.
