Hi all, Ken aa7jc said
"I have not done much testing yet since I don't have anything that draws that much current." I have a couple of drums of mains cable known in the UK as 2.5 T&E, the 2 conductors are 2.5 mm sq and earth is about 1.5. The inner end is available so I soldered the two main conductors together. UK rating is about 22A depending on how its installed, rather less rolled on a drum! Connect the two 'free' ends to 'short' the PSU. You are only looking for 1/2 1/3 1/4 ohm depending on current; it works very well for plenty long enough for stiffness tests, unroll for a soak test or it probably wont unroll ever again !
