Optional Capacitance Performance Verification Test
Configuration: Capacitance (CONFigure:CAPacitance)
1 Select the Capacitance function.
2 Select each range in the order shown below. Provide the indicated input
voltage and frequency. Compare measurement results to the appropriate
test limits shown in the table. (Be certain to allow for appropriate
source settling.)
[1] For the best accuracy, take a zero null measurement with open test leads, to null
out the test lead capacitance, before connecting the test leads to the calibrator.
