Loading Errors (AC Voltage)

In the AC voltage function, the input impedance of the multimeter appears as a 1 MΩ

resistance in parallel with 100 pF of capacitance. The cabling that you use to connect

signals to the multimeter also adds capacitance and loading. The table below shows the

multimeter's approximate input resistance at various frequencies.
