In order to evaluate the resistance of electrical and electronic devices to power surges and transients, it is necessary to utilize a device known as a mixed wave surge generator. This kind of generator uses a mixture of common mode and differential mode surge signals. The following is an overview of the most important aspects of running a combined wave surge generator: Connect the equipment to be tested (EUT) to the surge generator using the appropriate test leads. Connect the equipment to be tested (EUT) to the surge generator . Check that the connection is secure and that the EUT has power. Activate the surge generator, then use the control panel to configure the required surge parameters, such as the surge amplitude, surge duration, and repetition rate. Once these settings are complete, turn the surge generator back on. Choose the appropriate surge waveform from the list of possibilities that are shown on the surge generator. These options include common mode surge, differential
