will
be within
specifications
if
the

are within
specifications
and if

is
correct.
No other

Set the
FEEDBACK Switch
to FAST and the tiltiplier
Switch
to 3.
Use the
current
source
to provide
an input
current.
With
the
Range
Switch
set
to the COULOMBS ranges
given
in Table
5, apply
the
corresponding
input
current.
Use a stop
watch

specification
is
200 microvolts

maximum averaged
over
any 24-hour
period
after
warm-up;
during
two-hour
warm-up,
no more than
2 millivolts
after
the
first
hour(Refer
to
Chart

d.
Change electrometer

does not
meet the
zero
