4100 Series Digital u-Ohmmeter Specifications
4100ATC | 4150ATC | 4165 | 4165-1344
General
The specifications for the 4100 Series of Ohmmeters are listed in the following paragraphs. In all
cases the specifications are valid for full Kelvin Four-Terminal measurements using connections
having less than 20 milliohms of lead resistance per wire.
Accuracy
The accuracy specifications listed below are valid following a 30 minute warm-up at an ambient
temperature between 15°C and 35°C for a period of 1 year following calibration, and include the
effects of line voltage variations within the allowed range.

Full Scale Test Voltage: 20mV
[1] The Model 4165-1344 uses reduced test currents and incorporates a user-selectable clamp on
the current source for making "dry" measurements. The clamp may be set to 20mV or 2V. The
4165-1344 also has a reverse current mode that may be used to ensure a dry, true-ohms
measurement.
[2] If the clamp is set to "20mV", the Maximum Input specification is changed to: 20% of range
for the .2Ω range or 50% of range for all other ranges.
