Heating of the test specimen
In the lower 3 measuring ranges the measuring current may result in heating of the test specimen. In the upper measuring ranges the current through the test specimen is so low that heating of the test specimen is not an issue.
Measuring range | Max. power in the test specimen (alternating mode) |
|---|---|
-1 (10 mΩ -100 mΩ) | ~450 µW (~220 µW) |
0 (100 mΩ -1 Ω) | ~4.5 mW (~2.2 mW) |
1 (1 Ω-10 Ω) | ~45 mW (~22 mW) |
