Distribution of accuracy HM8118

Question:

In the manual of the R&S LCR -Bridge HM8118 the measurment accuracy is defined. Is this value given based on Gauss or rectangular distribution?

If it's Gauss, can you please let me know the confidence factor?

Answer:

The calculation of accuracy is based on Gauss distribution.

The confidence factor is k=2. This means that we have a coverage probability of 95,4 %.
