Measurement techniques

Voltmeter

To ensure that the values read by the voltmeter during both the verification procedure and the calibration procedure
are not affected by the instantaneous measurement of the AC peaks of the output current ripple, make several DC
measurements and average them.

Current-monitoring resistor

The 4-terminal current shunt is used to eliminate output current measurement error caused by voltage drops in the
load leads and connections. It has special current-monitoring terminals inside the load connection terminals.
Connect the voltmeter directly to these current-monitoring terminals.

Power Supply

The power supply is used to supply power for both verification and calibration procedure.

Verification Test Setup

Front panel connection

Connect all leads to the input terminals as shown in the following figure.

The following figures show the verification test set-ups. Connect all leads to the input terminal as shown below.
