3457A
4-87. Equipment Required. Resistance Standards of 3 Kohms (+ .001%), 30 Kohms (+ 001%) and
300 Kohms (+ ,001%) are required for this procedure.
I. Set the HP 3457A to the 4-Wire ohms function (OHMF) and the number of digits displayed (DIGITS
DISP) to six.
2. Connect the appropriate Resistance Standard to the HP 3457A front panel input terminals as shown
in Figure 4-18.
3. Use the Test Record to record the resistance readings for the 3 Kohm, 30 Kohm and 300 Kohm
ranges.
4. If any of the readings are beyond the limits specified in Table 4-28 and on the Test Record, the in-
strument should be calibrated. Refer to Section V of this manual for calibration procedures.
5. Remove the Resistance Standard from the HP 3457A front panel input terminals.
