Manufacturer Narrative

Analysis testing found the lv-setscrew was blocking lead insertion into the lv-connector.Analysis found the lv-setscrew was 100% stripped.The stripped setscrew indicates it was being manipulated by the user of the wrench in the field.For analysis testing the setscrew was backed out from blocking the connector port.Is-4 test leads could then be fully inserted into the lv-connector with normal insertion force.All connector dimensions were within specification.No device anomalies were found.The problem is related to the user¿s use of the wrench that at some point turned the setscrew down blocking lead insertion while stripping the setscrew.
