5.3 Resistance measurement
The MGR10 should be in the measurement
[STOP]
mode. In this mode the measuring current is
switched off and the current terminals are shorted internally. Connect the measuring leads as described
in section 5.2, before starting the measurement select the current level and mode required as described
in section 4.2
WARNING : the maximum measuring current is 10 Amps on the lowest 3 measuring ranges
ensure that the current level selected will not damage the resistance being measured.
Select the range required see 4.1 or auto range.
To start the measurement press the
[MEAS]
button the measured resistance value will be displayed on
the screen.
5.4 Resistance measurement with temperature compensation
Temperature compensation should be used when measuring the resistance of materials which have
a high temperature coefficient. Copper, for example, has a temperature coefficient of 3.80%/K.
The value of the resistance measured will therefore vary with the temperature of the copper. To
obtain consistent and meaningful results, the resistance values may be related to a set ambient
temperature, normally 20
C.
Example
: Copper with a temperature coefficient of 3980ppm/k = 0.3980%/k

To measure with the temperature compensation, proceed as in 5.2.4 but in addition connect the
temperature sensor probe to the front panel socket. Select the temperature compensation
measurement mode as described in 4.4. Alternatively, if the ambient temperature is stable, a manual
value may be entered, in this case a temperature sensor is not required. The compensated resistance
value will be displayed in large digits on the MGR10 screen and the measured value will be shown
in smaller digits below the main display. The measured or set temperature will also be shown.
