When taking measurements, it is important to minimize the inevitable measurement error that occurs depending on the equipment used and its surroundings. The online course Measurement technology covers the selection of equipment and how to handle measurement uncertainty in the best way.
The course is given online, via Zoom, starting October 7, 2024.
Course content and schedule:
Oct. 7 19-21: Measurements of DC voltage, DC current and resistance
Oct. 10 19-21: Measurements of AC voltage, AC current and impedance
