Note: The Fluke 8506A or 8508 Digital Multi meter (or higher AC accuracy DMM) must be used
for the following calibration. The DMM must be set to the AC HI ACCUR mode for all AC
measurements.
The shunt must be connected in series with the load. Connect the load to the output. Use a 10 mOhm
current shunt of sufficient power rating in series with the load to measure the AC load current.
To calibrate all measurement functions, the desired value for the measurement value of current or
voltage must be entered for the corresponding calibration value. Make the indicated adjustments by
typing in the desired display value. This should be the value indicated by the external DVM. If a 10
mOhm current shunt is used for current, 100 mV represents 10 amps.
The Calibration Load Table shows required load bank settings for the current measurement calibration
procedure. The current should be calibrated in the lowest voltage range only. (Highest current range).
