3458A DMM Uncertainty:
The uncertainty of the voltage measured by the 3458A is:
Error = (ppm of reading + ppm of range) + (factory traceability) + (temperature coefficient)
Conditions: 1 Year Calibration and temperature variance +/-5°C with ACAL on dc
volts.
Reference: 3458A Operating Manual Appendix A
Factory Traceability: From 6ppm to 0.5ppm Standard Uncertainty depending on
range.
