+ | I've run 5 experiments: | ||
+ | * go from 0 V to 84 V in 0.1 V increments, without any load | ||
+ | * go from 0 V to 84 V at 1.0 A in 0.1 V increments, with a 678 Ω load | ||
+ | * go from 0 V to 11 V at 1.0 A in 0.1 V increments, with a 10.2 Ω load | ||
+ | * go from 0 A to 3 A in 0.1 A increments, with a short | ||
+ | * go from 0 A to 1 A at 10 V in 0.01 A increments, with a 10.2 Ω load | ||
+ | |||
+ | After changing a value I've waited 3 seconds for the measurements to stabilized. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The measurements and accuracy calculations are available in this {{: | ||

+ | As you can see the measured values are most of the time higher than the set values, but within the 0.2 % accuracy (to 84V or 3A). | ||
+ | But the actual values displayed by the power supply is way below what is set, and outside of the accuracy, particularly on the low voltages. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Conclusion: don't trust the displayed voltage (it's too low), but you can be confident the output is right (except for the very low voltages and currents). |
