Title: Nieman 25" ...does it require an isolation transformer?
Post by: helpmebuild on April 27, 2010, 02:47:32 pm

Anyone know if their 24.8" tri mode needs an iso?

Thanks!

Yes Ken as almost always is right... forgive me Ken I say almost cause I sure know sometimes I am wrong.

If your cabinet has an isolation transformer, it is still not a bad idea, just not needed as the monitor has a switch mode power supply which offers the protection of an isolation transformer on all components after the transsformer.
But if you are troubleshooting areas before that like the bridge rectifier,,, then you should definitely use an Isolation transformer.

Always feel free to e-mail me in regards to questions on our monitors.

thanks
