3. Set up the equipment as shown. (See Figure 4.)
NOTE. To assure accurate measurements, it is important that a significant amount
of current does not flow through the sense leads. For this reason, we recommend
that the wiring o f the remote sense and the voltmeter be away from the high
curren
t connections between the electronic load and the DUT.
A solution is a pair fork lugs with all three wires crimped in. Another alternative
is a fo
rk lug between the DUT and the load, and separate connections (probably
also fork lugs) holding the wiring for one or both of the voltmeter and remote
sense. A third alternative is to stack banana jacks at the voltmeter, with the remote
sense toward the voltmeter, and the two high current connections on the outside.
