The 8482A power sensor uses cal factors to compensate the power sensor for frequency
response errors. Cal factors are stated in percentages. The 8482A factory cal factor uncertainty
ranges from 2.2% to 3.1%. The cal factor uncertainty can be reduced to < 2.0% by using
metrology grade calibration techniques. The power sensor cal factor uncertainty becomes one
component of the Verification Test uncertainty analysis. Lower cal factor uncertainties will
translate to wider test margins.

The 8494G and 8496G step attenuators should be permanently joined via the 11716A
Interconnect Kit. The step attenuator combination should have each step attenuation
characterized by a metrology lab at 50 MHz. For the best test results the step attenuation should
be characterized to the following uncertainty levels;
