Hi
Pt1: Current meter:in present setup is this not a short circuit to ground? Current meters usually in line on positive terminal
so you can actually measure current. Can you not read this from you power supply?
Can you adjust current level on your power supply ?
Where on diagram is actual power supply connection ?
You should connect power supply negative terminal to ground point. Check that you have a common ground ie conductivity test between ground points and terminal.
NB ENSURE THAT POWER IS NOT TURNED ON IN FACT DISCONNECT NEGATIVE TERMINAL FROM POWER SUPPLY.

Actually, in this fixture, the current meter will read the current going through the UUT if the relay is opened. Also, since the output of the diode bridge has one side connected to the ground symbol, and all voltage regulators also are connected to the ground symbol, and the current measurement is also connected to the ground symbol, then there is nothing wrong with this fixture.
Mr. Wang: This post is directly related to your other post entitled "Ground". Please stick to one post with the same title to avoid confusion, and to help you get the best responses.
