Set Appliance State:

Isolate Mains Power to appliance as per TOPs P4
Set Multimeter to DC Volts Set meter to measure DC Volts
Turn Hot Water Tap On
Gain access to PCB (use Insulation Mat as required)
Set the DVM to manual range mode with 2 decimal places
(i.e. displays 0.00V DC)
WARNING! - Mains voltage is expected during test follow
TOPs P4 live testing procedure
Mains Power On

Measurement:

Measure the voltage between the flame sense lead at the PCB and a suitable earth point.
Before the burner ignites the voltage should be approximately 1.5V to 2V DC.
Once the burner ignites the displayed voltage should drop to minus 10V DC or below (e.g. -12V DC).
