General Information

 

Description

Description

The 

Keysight

 16380C Capacitance Standard Set consists of three precision capacitors 0.01 

µ

F (16385A), 0.1 

µ

F (16386A), and 1 

µ

F (16387A). One precision capacitor 10 

µ

(16388A) is also added with the option. All four capacitors have high capacitance stabillity 
and are virtually unaffected by changes in environmental temperature, ensuring 
measurement repeatability and reliability.

The 16380C was designed for use in calibrating precision impedance measuring 
instruments (such as LCR meters, impedance analyzers, etc.) that have capacitance ranges 
between 0.01 

µ

F and 10 

µ

F. The 16380C can be used to directly certify capacitance 

measurement accuracy over the 0.01 

µ

F to 10 

µ

F range.

Contents

The 16380C contents are listed in Table 1-1.

Initial Inspection

Inspect the shipping container for damage. If the shipping container or cushioning material 
is damaged, it should be kept until the contents of the shipment have been checked for 
completeness and the instrument has been checked mechanically.The contents of the 
shipment should be as shown in Table 1-1 If the shipment is incomplete, or if there is 
mechanical damage or defects, notify the nearest 

Keysight

 office. If the shipping container 

is damaged, or the cushioning material shows signs of stress, notify the carrier as well as 
the 

Keysight

 office. Keep the shipping materials for carrier’s inspection. The 

Keysight

 

office will arrange for repair or replacement at 

Keysight

 Option, without waiting for claim 

settlement.
