Recommended Test Equipment

The test equipment recommended for the performance verification and
adjustment procedures is listed below. If the exact instrument is not available,
use the accuracy requirements shown to select substitute calibration
standards. If you use equipment other than that recommended in Table A-2,
you must recalculate the measurement uncertainties for the actual equipment
used.
Table A-2 Recommended Test Equipment
* To find the accurate resistance, it is recommended to use a current monitoring resistor after calibration.
1E3640A model, 2E3641A model, 3E3642A model, 4E3644A, 5E3643A, 6E3645A model.
