input, and valid from 5% to 100%

The
Fluke
87
is
a
True-RMS responding
meter.
The
meter will display a reading (typically < 25
digits)
when
the
input leads
are
shorted
together
in the
A
C functions which is
caused
by
internal amplifier noise. The accuracy of the Fluke 87 is not significantly affected
by this
internal
offset
when
measuring inputs that are within 5%
to
100% of
the selected range. When the RMS value of
the
two values
(5%
of
range and
internal offset) is calculated,
the effect is
minimal
as
shown in
the
following example where 20. 0=5% of 400 mVrange, and
2.5 is the
internal
offset:
RMS
=
SQRT[(20.0)

+
(2.5)

]
=

Ifyou use
the REL function
to zero
the display when using the
AC
functions, a
constant
error that
is equal
to
the internal offset
will
result.
