2 Performance Tests

Introduction

The performance tests described in this chapter test the power meter's electrical
performance against the specifications detailed in chapter 1. They are used for
incoming inspection, the calibration cycle (also called periodic maintenance), or
after repairs have been made.
The following conditions must be met for valid performance tests:
NOTE
– The power meter and test equipment must have a 30 minute warm-up for all
– The line voltage for the power meter must be 85 to 264 Vac and the line
– The ambient temperature must be 0
The following performance tests are described in this chapter:
– Instrument accuracy (normal path) test.
– Instrument accuracy (average path) test.
– Power reference level test.
– Keysight E-Series power sensor interface test.
– Keysight E932x power sensor (average path) functional test.
– Time base accuracy test.
– Output standing wave ratio (SWR) test.
