Why doesn't the output voltage reach its maximum?

If the output voltage does not reach the desired setting, it is likely because the power supply has entered Constant Current (CC) mode. This happens when the connected load requires more current than the preset current limit (CC setting). To prevent exceeding this limit, the power supply automatically reduces the output voltage.
