QuadTech Publishes Low Resistance Measurement Guide
Detailed Information on Low Level Measurement Techniques
Maynard, MA - QuadTech, Inc., a leading electronic test equipment manufacturer in the passive component and electrical safety testing marketplace, announces the availability of its latest testing resource, the Low Resistance Measurement Guide. For component, test, or quality engineers, or anyone making milliohm measurements, the Low Resistance Measurement Guide provides information on meter design, measurement techniques, sources of error, connection to the device under test and more. The basic physics of conductors including material, wire gauge and temperature characteristics are discussed as well as temperature compensation, dry circuit testing and thermal emf factors.
Some of the topics covered in the Low Resistance Measurement Guide include:
- 2-Wire & 4-Wire Measurement Techniques
- AC vs. DC Resistance Measurement
- Conductor Resistance vs. Temperature
- Resistivity of Conductors
- Test Leads & Connection Methods
- Verification of a Milliohmmeter
- Glossary, Formulas & Tables
When making measurements of such a small magnitude, accuracy and repeatability are of utmost importance. This 50-plus page technical resource includes mathematical equations, connection diagrams, resistivity tables, verification tools and application examples to illustrate the milliohm measurement. Discover milliohm applications in surface resistivity measurements, cable testing and component testing. Get additional resistivity and conductivity data from the Helpful Links section or consult the appendix for a full Glossary or detailed list of QuadTech Application Notes.
Available in PDF format, the complimentary Low Resistance Measurement Guide may be downloaded from the Resources Section at http://www.quadtech.com. QuadTech Testing Guides, the most downloaded resources on quadtech.com, include the Electrical Safety Testing Guide, The LCR Measurement Primer, Cable Testing - An Overview and now the Low Resistance Measurement Guide. Helping provide test and measurement solutions is what QuadTech is all about.
