#144254 - Proper reading?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Jprao said:

I want to measure a voltage ranging from 500V to 6 KV. I am using resistor divider to get the voltages from 0.5V to 6 V. This voltage is to be given to DPM for display. But the reading is not coming properly


Can you explain just how "the reading is not coming properly"? Are you having trouble with offset, range, non-linearity, or what?

What kind of resistors are you using for your divider? Have you considered their voltage coefficient?
