Best Answer

Insulation tests inserts high voltage DC across what ever is being tested. This voltage could be higher that the diodes peak reverse voltage. The diode might bridge across the PRV rating using a voltage higher than its normal operating voltage and destroy the diode. All variable frequency drives and soft starts will have a label on them warning against preforming this type of test with this type of equipment in the circuit. Disconnect the load from the drives when meggering a downstream load.

Well for starters, if you're putting a new CPU in the computer, you have to be incredibly careful you don't force the CPU if it's not going in. If one of the pins on the underside of the chip gets bent, you might as well go buy a new one rather than try to fix the bend.

What precations should i use to continue to play softball with a pulled hamstring?

A pulled hamstring takes weeks to heal and it's not a good idea to play at all. If you can even walk you're doing well and if you can walk without moderate to sever pain then it's probably strained and not pulled. Either way you will aggravate the injury and turn a couple of weeks into months.
