130 34405A User’s and Service Guide
6 Specifications
These specifications apply when using the 34405A
multimeter in an environment that is free of electromagnetic
interference and electrostatic charge.
When using the multimeter in an environment where
electromagnetic interference or significant electrostatic
charge is present, measurement accuracy may be reduced.
Particularly note:
• The voltage measurement probes are not shielded and can
act as antennas, causing electromagnetic interference to
be added to the signal being measured.
• Electrostatic discharges of 4000 V or greater may cause
the multimeter to temporarily stop responding, resulting
in a lost or erroneous reading.
