Page 16: Esd Measurements
ESD Measurements Connection START Note ENTER Checking the Measurement Cables Before performing resistance measurement, the test probes on the measurement cables should be short-cir- cuited in order to assure that the instrument displays a value very close to 0 Ω (see section 8). This serves to pre- vent faulty connections or to identify any interruptions in the measuring cables. -
