Electrical char ac ter i stics

• Rated voltage: 3300 V

• Rated amperage: 2.0 A

• Leakage current:

• Center to guard: < 100 x 10

• Guard to shield: < 100 x 10

• Full continuity:

• Center to center

• Guard to guard

• Shield to shield

• Dielectric breakdown voltage:

• Center/guard to shield: 5250 V

With the Model 2657A System SourceMeter Instrument, the voltage between the Guard and HI
(inner shield and center conductor) will typically be less than 1 V under steady-state conditions. This
results in much lower leakage current between the inner shield of the cable and the center
conductor.
