Stable environment
The permittivity and dielectric losses vary with temperature and humidity. Therefore, we recommend
measuring the sample in a stable environment.
8.4
Shielding of low signal measurements
To improve the signal-to-noise ratio for low current measurements, do the following improvements on the
test setup:
► Put the test cell and/or test device into an EMC box to shield the test system from external noise.
► Increase the test voltage.
► Separate guard and ground.
► Ensure the cabling is also shielded.
