(2) For each set of measured voltages at the points (1, 2, and 3) indicated in Figure (4.B), determine
if they are correct and if not, identify the most likely fault(s). State what you would do to correct the
problem once it is isolated. The zener is rated at 12 V.
(a) V1=120 V rms, V2=30 V dc, V3=12 V dc
(b) V1=120 V rms, V2=30 V dc, V3=30 V dc
(c) V1=0 V, V2=0 V, V3=0 V dc
