Keysight U1241B final decision.

FOr those who commented on my previous post - thank you - here is an update form Keysight themselves:

"The understanding of the 5% of range and 100% of range is correct. That the guaranteed range for measurement under the 1000.0mV range would be actually 50mV to 1000.0mV. Sadly to say there is no method for the U1241B to be able to measure such a low voltage."

So, the U1241B multimeter cannot do what is claimed on P.17 of their brochure: ACV range of 0.1mV to 1000V.

Otherwise, it looks like a nice device, I think, but I really don't know if the other ranges and accuracy quoted can be trusted. I have requested that Keysight provide accurate details of all measurement ranges - I will make decision when this has been received.

Edit: actually, their datasheets can probably be trusted.
