How is the continuity of a connector tested?

As long-term performance of connectors becomes increasingly important, the continuity performance from the input to the out- put of the connector will also become more important. Typically, continuity is tested by sourcing a constant current through the pin and measuring the corresponding voltage drop.

What to know when troubleshooting a wiring installation?

When it comes to troubleshooting a wiring installation, testing is everything. A lighting problem can originate at any point along the wiring on either the tow vehicle or the trailer, so it is important to determine not only what is causing the problem, but where it is located.

How is insertion loss tested with a power meter?

Insertion loss testing with a test source and power meter simulates the way the cable plant will be used with an actual link. The test source mimics the transmitter, the power meter the receiver.
