Measurement Considerations
E-9
Shielding
WARNING
Do not float input LO more than 30V rms, 42.4V peak above earth ground
with an exposed shield connected to input LO. To avoid a possible shock
hazard, surround the LO shield with a second safety shield that is insulated
from the inner shield. Connect this safety shield to safety earth ground
using #18 AWG minimum wire before use.
Proper shielding of all signal paths and sources being measured is important to minimize
noise pickup in virtually any low-level measurement situation. Otherwise, interference
from such noise sources as line frequency and RF fields can seriously corrupt
measurements, rendering experimental data virtually useless.
In order to minimize noise, a closed metal shield surrounding the source may be
necessary, as shown in the example of Figure E-4. This shield should be connected to
input LO in most cases, although better noise performance may result with the shield
connected to chassis ground in some situations.
