Current
measurement
Similar
connection considerations are required for
current
measurement
as for voltage
measurement.
Use screened twisted
pair
cable
to
reduce induced
voltages
and connect 'Guard'
to
the
source of
common
mode
voltage
to
provide
a separate
common
mode
current path.
When
making
AC
current
measurements pay particular attention to
the
lead
impedance,
especially at
high frequencies
on
the
lower current ranges.
