To Set the Integration Time
Integration time is specified in Number of Power Line Cycles (NPLC).
You can set the NPLC to 0.02, 0.2, 1, 2, 10, 20, 100, or 200.
• You can set the integration time to one of three fixed values by
choosing the number of digits displayed, see page 24.
• You can set the integration time in the MEASure menu using the
INTEGRATE command.
• The Integration Time is directly related to the maximum number of
digits the meter will display.

• You can always show fewer digits than the maximum allowed
(the minimum number of digits shown is 4
1
⁄
2
).
Integration Time is local to the selected function. This means that you
can select the integration time for each function independently. The
meter remembers integration time when you switch between functions.
