SUPPLEMENTAL
INFORMATION
This section provides supplemental information for
user consideration when operating the LCR meters.
Some recommendations and explanations are
provided to help aid in the use of some functions and
features, in which can help the user gain optimal and
accurate measurement results.
Selecting Test Frequency
Test frequency can greatly affect the results of
measurement reading, especially when measuring
inductors and capacitors. This section provides some
recommendations and suggestions to consider.
Capacitance
When measuring capacitance selecting, the right
frequency is important in obtaining the most accurate
measurement results. Generally, a 1 kHz test
frequency is used to measure capacitors that are 0.01
µF or smaller. For capacitors that are 10 µF or larger,
a lower frequency of 120 Hz is used. Following this
trend, high test frequencies are best for testing very
low capacitance components. For large capacitance
components, low frequency would be optimal. For
