Why is the measured value unstable on my Hioki BT3563 Measuring Instruments?
- E
  Elizabeth RamirezAug 9, 2025
  Unstable measured values on your Hioki Measuring Instruments can arise from several factors: * If you're using a two-terminal connection, switch to a four-terminal connection, as contact resistance may affect readings. * Metallic objects near the probes can cause instability; measure away from them. * Signal noise can interfere; twist cables, minimize loop areas, and shield/ground cables. * If using multiple instruments, stagger the timing of readings using the measurement current pulse output function. Ensure that the probes' forked loops are not overlapping and avoid stacking the instruments. * Taking measurements too close to the instruments can also cause instability; maintain a distance of at least 20 cm.
