[1] For 33 to 1000 V output, burden current <6 mA. For 6 to 20 mA burden current (33 to 330 V), the phase uncertainty is 0.4 degree.
[2] For 33 to 1000 V output, burden current <2 mA. For 2 to 5 mA burden current (33 to 330 V), the phase uncertainty is 1.5 degrees.
[3] For 33 to 1000 V output, burden current <2 mA. For 2 to 5 mA burden current (33 to 330 V), the phase uncertainty is 5 degrees.
