NOTE. Percents listed above are percent of reading. Instrument set up is as
follows:
Autozero On, after 20 minute warm-up.
Tcal is the calibration temperature (18 to 28° C). Specifications are for Tcal
±3° C. Multiply the total temperature coefficient by the difference between the
actual operating temperature and Tcal ±3° C.
Add 0.02% of the range setting to the first reading following a range change.
Burden voltage is the maximum voltage drop caused by the current measurement
for the maximum reading in the range.
For Autozero Off, do the following:
For daily and long term drift, add 110 mA/Day for the 150 mA range and
120 mA/Day for the 1A range.
For temperature drift, add 2 mA per °C for 150 mA range, and 15 mA per °C for
the 1A range.
