Performance and verification
I had two meters to check this DB52 :
Agilent 34970A with 34901A mux card, in 4W ohms mode, 200NPLC (Calibrated in 2013)
Keithley 2001 , 4W ohms with offset compensation, 10NPLC (Calibrated February 2014).
Not to jam thread with gazillion of photos, here are thumbnails.

First connect meter 4W to ESI decade. Set all decades to zero.
Null meter using offset(relative) function. This will be our zero reference.
Adjust decades, measure resistance.

I am impressed as for it's money. Definately a keeper unit.
Will use this box for KX project circuits tests, such as ADC, DACs and current sources.
