■ Accuracy
This the difference between the signal's true value and the value displa
It may differ according the calibre and usually expressed follows:
E reading counts
■ Crest factor
This the ratio the peak (highest) value signal the RMS value. Peak value

■ Other important features
The instrument must suitable for its environment and operating constraints.
Thus, its mechanical protection, leakproofing, weight, handling and general ergonomics are crucial factors for the
instrument's reliability, life span and operational effectiveness. f

■ Safety rules and good practice:
• Use measurement instruments and accessories which are suitable for the application and measurement conditions.

helps estimate the rate distortion which the multimeter can measure
correctly.

to Fourier series development, periodic signal any shape can be
broken down into set elementary sinusoidal signals whose
frequencies are multiples the fundamental.Theoretical Introduction
