b. Cleaning. Clean the rectifiers using a clean
lint-free cloth and dry low pressure compressed air.
c. Inspection and Repair.Inspect rectifiers for
cracks, breaks, and for evidence of overheating. Re-
place defective rectifier(s) as required.
d. Installation.
(1) Install rectifier to mounting bracket with
nut.
(2) Reconnect leads.
(3) Refer to paragraph 9-7 d. and install
minal board assembly.
e. Test.
(1) Models MEP-019A and MEP-014A.
(a) Disconnect wires V9B16, X1B16,

(b) Check the front-to-back resistance ratio
of each rectifier with an ohmeter. Ratio should be at
least 100,000/1 with the forward resistance being
10 ohms maximum.
(2) Model MEP-024A.
(a) Disconnect wires V9B14, X76B14,
X5B14, X4B14, X3B14, X2B14, and X1B14 from the
terminal board.
(b) Check the front-to-back resistance ratio
of each rectifier with an ohmeter. Ratio should be at
least 100,000/1 with the forward resistance being
10 ohms maximum.
