Summary
The methods examined in this article for compensating the temperature error in supply sources and for stabilizing the input resistance of parallel potential dividers open up new possibilities for the application of these dividers in digital voltmeters with a range of 1–1000 V. Parallel potential dividers with a decimal scale made according to [5] are more suitable for use with low-resistance multivoltmeters.
The processing of the readings of each decade in this instance can be carried out in four steps by the method illustrated in Fig. 6.
