I am looking for HP electronic load. Either a card frame or a dedicated unit.

Question Re: Wanted:HP Agilent electronic load

What is the electrical specification that is required? What do you intend to use it for?
I ask those two Qs. since in the event of that item not being obtainable, it might be possible to design & build your own.

Just a thought.

Al.

I want to excercise a few different types of PSU’s (SMPS, Linear..) for my own benefit.
Also I would like to test and monitor backup batteries in a UPS.

Look on eBay for electronic load modules from China. A 10A 30V 60W load module is under £15. I have bought these and they work extremely well for testing power supplies and rechargeable batteries.
The Agilent/HP loads are lovely but probably 10x the price or more.
