For your entertainment the reversed schematics of these instruments are added here. There are three boards and an SMPS power supply. The SMPS power supply that is at the backside of the instrument looks rather "generic" so I didn't include it. The instrument itself consists of a large "Main" board mounted to the bottom side of the main heat sink, a "Slave" board on the top side and a "Front" board with the display and the control buttons. The schematic of the main board is spread over 5 pages. So we have a total of 7 .PDF plots of the schematic pages in the .ZIP file.
The schematics were done in KiCad 7. I used the part references as they are silk screened on the boards. Because the part references are not unique for the whole system, they sometimes appear on more than one board, I had to make separate KiCad projects for main, slave and front. For your convenience the schematics are published as .PDF's. And some pictures of the main board. The bottom side picture is marked with the different ground planes and the interconnecting zero ohm resistors.
Comparing the ET5411A+ main board with pictures I found here of the ET5410A+ the only hardware differences are the type of power Mosfets and the value of the resistors that determine the high measuring range for voltage and current. And the firmware is adapted of course to reflect these differences in measuring ranges.
Funny thing is the main board contains in the isolation section all the parts for the double channel ET5420A+ variant, I wonder why that is..?
The input sense section has some nice provisions to cope with the advertised maximum 500V input (ET5411A+). It has isolation slots in the PCB and two ladders of 8 resistors for the voltage input circuit. However, the heads of the board mounting screws have only about 2 mm spacing from the traces. The screws attach the board to the main heatsink, The main heatsink is connected to the V+ terminal while circuit ground is connected to the V- terminal! Even for the ET5410A+ variant that is restricted to 150V on its input it makes me feel a little uneasy. Use with care, keep the boards dry and clean.
I am working on some small mods. I took the encoder out of the front board and soldered it back with A and B pins free of their pads; connected the pins with short wires to the opposite pads. Now rotating the encoder to the right increases numbers, it feels more natural IMHO.
Next is taming the noisy fan.
Another thread here discusses the addition of an external voltage sense connection.
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/et5410-electronic-load-mod-add-external-sense/msg4837247/#msg4837247But be aware of the problems that can arise when these external sense wires loose their connection.
Your questions or remarks are welcome. I connected some wires to specific points of the circuits trying to get an idea of the dynamic behaviour.
