Coulombs verification
Coulombs verification is performed by applying accurately known charge values (derived from a
voltage source and capacitor) to the Model 6517B input jack, and then verifying that the Model 6517B
readings fall within specified limits.
1. Connect the Model 6517B to the calibrator and capacitor as shown in the following figure, using
the appropriate capacitor value from the standard capacitor column in the table below.
