Diagnose

Observations are context. They do not pass or fail a structure. See Diagnose.

WhenObservationSeverity
Current = 0Zero currentcaution
Current < 0Negative currentcaution

Assumptions

  • Direct current. Shunt resistance is known and positive.

Provenance

  • CP4 exam preparation material documents shunt/current relationships; independently verify against an authoritative CP training reference before release.
