Requires Tektronix TM 500 Series or Tektronix TM 5000 Series Power Module

100 Turn Current Loop

CAUTION. It is not recommended that a coil with greater than 100

turns be made. Magnetic fields are produced that may cause a

malfunction in heart pacemakers, or damage to sensitive equipment.

Coil currents in excess of 0.2 Amperes are not recommended.

For the accuracy check you will need a simple current loop. Wind

100 turns of 20 AWG (≈0.9m diameter) coated wire around a

cylindrical form approximately 7.5 cm (3 inches) in diameter.

NOTE. Be sure the current loop has exactly 100 turns. A significant

error will result for each extra or missing turn.
