Ok, entry level question.
I just got the UT-61E (mainly because of the 22,000 counts).
Never had a meter better than a Harbor Freight special before.
Interested in checking accuracy now that I have so many counts.
Specs say resistance in the medium resistance range is 0.5% (I think it's something like up to 200K or so).
If I get a Vishay 0.01% resistor in that ohm range that should be accurate to the last digit the meter can display, so it would tell me the total error (number of digits) off the meter is compared to the resistor, is that correct?
So, a 100K @ 0.01% resistor is going to be between 99,990-100,010 ohms, correct?
The meter cant display anything greater than 0.5% accuracy (99,500-100,500 ohms)?
