Model 2750 Multimeter/Switch System Service Manual Performance Verification 1-5
Verification limits
The verification limits stated in this section have been calculated using only the Model
2750 one-year accuracy specifications, and they do not include test equipment uncertainty.
If a particular measurement falls slightly outside the allowable range, recalculate new lim-
its based on both Model 2750 specifications and pertinent calibration equipment
specifications.
Example reading limit calculation
The following is an example of how reading limits have been calculated. Assume you are
testing the 10V DC range using a 10V input value. Using the Model 2750 one-year accu-
racy specification for 10V DC of ± (30ppm of reading + 5ppm of range), the calculated
limits are:
Reading limits = 10V ± [(10V 30ppm) + (10V 5ppm)]
Reading limits = 10V ± (0.0003 + 0.00005)
Reading limits = 10V ± 0.00035V
Reading limits = 9.99965V to 10.00035V
Calculating resistance reading limits
Resistance reading limits must be recalculated based on the actual calibration resistance
values supplied by the equipment manufacturer. Calculations are performed in the same
manner as shown in the preceding example, except, of course, that you should use the
actual calibration resistance values instead of the nominal values when performing your
calculations.
For example, assume that you are testing the 10k range using an actual 10.03k calibra-
tion resistance value. Using Model 2750 one-year 10k range accuracy of ± (100ppm of
reading + 6ppm of range), the calculated reading limits are:
Reading limits = 10.03k ± [(10.03k 100ppm) + (10k 6ppm)]
Reading limits = 10.02894k to 10.03106k
