We are going to test a 12 Watt LED Driver using DTM-1.

Specification of 12 Watt LED Driver is –

Input – 200~300 Volts AC

Output – 12 Volts 1 Amps

We have taken a led strip to test this led driver.

We have made the test specification as –

Test Setup

We have made a testing fixture to connect the LED driver for testing.(See below image).

On the DC output load side we have connected a LED Strip.

Pen drive is connected left buttom of DTM-1 which stores production data with model no, serial no and date time.

Testing fixture –

Testing Fixture

Above testing fixture helps user to connect the led driver fast and efficienct way.

On one side we have connected the AC output from the DTM-1 and DC Output of LED Driver connected to DTM-1 DC Input using Fixture DC Connector.

Connection –

Back Connection

Start from left first AC terminal is connected to the AC Input voltage.

Second terminal AC Output is connected to testing fixture's AC input (LED Driver input).

Third terminal DC Input is connected to the Testing fixture's DC side(LED Driver Output) .

Fourth terminal DC output is connected to the load(LED strip).

DTM-1 Readings –

Main Page (AC+DC+THD)

On main page we can see the AC Voltage, Current, Watt/PF, Athd%. On second column DC voltage, current, watt and efficiency can be analysed.

On right LED Display serial number is showing for production mode. To write data on pendrive we have to press WRITE button.

AC Parameters

Here we can analyze the AC parameters . It shows AC Voltage Current, Watt, Frequency/PF, Voltage thd%, Current thd%, and NET thd (Athd-Vthd)%

DC Parameters

On this page you can find the DC parameters as DC Voltage, Current , Watt and Efficiency.
