2. Continuity test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

   In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker ) across the chosen path.

3. Dielectric withstand test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_withstand_test

   An insulation test set; in this pattern, a hand-cranked generator provides the high voltage and the scale is directly calibrated in megohms. Voltage withstand testing is done with a high-voltage source and voltage and current meters. A single instrument called a "pressure test set" or "hipot tester" is often used to perform this test.

4. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   Multimeter test leads. A multimeter can use many different test probes to connect to the circuit or device under test. Crocodile clips, retractable hook clips, and pointed probes are the three most common types. Tweezer probes are used for closely spaced test points, as for instance surface-mount devices. The connectors are attached to flexible ...

5. Short-circuit test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short-circuit_test

   A different form of short-circuit testing is done to assess the mechanical strength of the transformer windings, and their ability to withstand the high forces produced if an energized transformer experiences a short-circuit fault. Currents during such events can be several times the normal rated current.

6. Open-circuit test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-circuit_test

   The open-circuit test, or no-load test, is one of the methods used in electrical engineering to determine the no-load impedance in the excitation branch of a transformer. The no load is represented by the open circuit, which is represented on the right side of the figure as the "hole" or incomplete part of the circuit.

7. Electrical isolation test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_isolation_test

   In electrical engineering, an electrical isolation test is a direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) resistance test that is performed on sub-systems of an electronic system to verify that a specified level of isolation resistance is met. Isolation testing may also be conducted between one or more electrical circuits of the same ...
