5500A
Service Manual

3-14. Capacitance

Use the Fluke 6304C LCR Meter with PM9540/BAN output cable as shown in Figure
3-5. This cable eliminates the need for a four-wire connection. Using the PM6304C LCR
meter, HI LEVEL is 2 V and NORMAL LEVEL is 1 V. The 5500A is automatically set
to COMP off. Enter into the 5500A the measured values of each step listed in Table 3-9
when prompted to do so.
Make sure there are no other connections to the 5500A, especially the
SCOPE BNC. Connecting any additional grounds to the 5500A can cause
erroneous capacitance outputs.
