The U.S. Army Test, Measurement, and Diagnostic Equipment Activity (USATA) executes the Army's test, measurement, and diagnostic equipment (TMDE) calibration and repair support program. USATA is the ...

Measuring the electrical resistance (ohms) of motors, compressors, and other electrical devices in HVAC systems may seem straightforward. But when the measurements of zero (0) or “OL” (overload) come ...

In a perfect world, electrical insulation would allow no current to flow through it. Unfortunately, several factors can — and will — result in the deterioration and ultimate failure of electrical ...

The IEC has published the third edition of the safety Standard for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Equipment, IEC61010-1. The safety requirements described in this latest generation of the ...

How to effectively measure ultra-low bias current by recreating the measurement scheme from an app note. Measuring input capacitance and input current. Creating a better measurement environment. 3. Cp ...

In this interview, industry expert Jason Chonko shares practical strategies for overcoming common challenges in high-resistance and low-signal electrical measurements by addressing noise, grounding, ...

Insulation failure is the root cause of many electrical conductors and equipment failures. When insulation fails, not only can equipment be damaged, but fire and shock can also result. Ideally, when ...
