TM 5-3895-374-24-1MaintenanceChecking the rectifiersTest instrument digital or moving scale ohmmeter.Under no circumstances must a magneto type ohmmeter (megger) be usedExample of a power transistor checkIf the results are abnormal, disconnect the rectifier and test directly across the terminalsSome tests are carried out using the load resistor, check that this resistance is goodThese tests enable a fault to be detected, but cannot give an assurance that the component is correct(page 3-206)
