Meter DC Voltage Accuracy Test
XW
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury, make sure that the
calibrator is in standby mode before making any connection between the
calibrator and the Test Tool. Dangerous voltages are present on the calibration
source and connection cables during these steps.
To test the meter dc voltage measurement accuracy:
1. Connect the Test Tool to the 5502A. See
.
2. Select the Test Tool setup.
3. Press
M
.
4. Press
1
to open the Measurement menu and select V dc.
5. Press
E
.
6. Press
J
to select MANUAL ranging. Use
j
and
k
to select the ranges.
7. Set the range to the first test point in
.
8. Set the 5502A to source the appropriate dc voltage. Observe the reading and check to see
if it is within the range shown under the appropriate column.
9. Continue through the test points.
When you are finished, set the 5502A to 0 (zero) Volt and Standby.
