The
DC
Transfer
Standard
required
for the
following
test
must
be
calibrated to
a
1.
017
V
to
1.019
V
standard
cell
that
has
been
calibrated
by
the
National
Bureau of Standards (NBS).
If
the
3435A
is
to
be
tested
for
its
24-hour accuracy
specifications,
the
Transfer
Standard must be
adjusted
for
optimum
1-volt
and
10-volt
output accuracy
using NBS-calibrated
stan-
dards.
It
is
recommended
that
the
Transfer
Standard
be
calibrated
and
adjusted
just
prior to
use.
After
calibra-
tion,
it
should be
left
on
and.
if
possible,
kept
in
a
con-
trolled
environment where
the
ambient temperature
is
within
one
or
two
degrees
of
the
temperature
in
which
it
was
calibrated.
The
following
procedure should
be
per-
formed
in
that
same
environment.
4-42.
If
the
recommended
DC
Transfer
Standard
or
its
equivalent
is
not
available,
an NBS-calibrated standard
cell
(1.017
V
to 1.019
V) can be
substituted.
If this
is
done, check
the
full-scale
accuracy of
the
34S5A
1
V
and
10
V
ranges using the Reference Divider
recommended
in
the
procedue.
