Original FryKleaner question
« on: 7 Feb 2005, 07:18 am »
Hi,

In the standard FryKleaner, are the shield/returns driven?  If so, are they current driven?  If not, can I jumper with RCA to alligator adapters from the hot of J3 to the shield of J2 and the hot of J4 to the shield of J5?  I would then use just the J2 to J5 connection to burn in one (or more if daisy chained) interconnects with current mode for both the signal and shield.  Is this correct?  Seems so, since this is in essence what I am doing with my speaker cables.

Let me know, as I don't want to blow this unit up!  Thanks, Steve

The standard FryKleaner does not have driven shields.  You have to rewire a connector using two active outputs, the short far ends of cable to ground (shield).

FryPro goes halfway.  It drives inner conductor in current mode, outer in voltage.  That way dielectric gets full workout.  

I suppose you could then reverse process and current-burn outer shield (assuming coax).

jh :)
