You should calibrate/verify it when you first get it. Apparently ours came with a cal procedure. I believe we verify ours once a year. However, I don't think we've ever seen it out of calibration. So they seem to be fairly reliable. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Bob Arciolla Sent: October 30, 2007 3:05 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] ESD wrist strap testers. Hi all, I am having a discussion with an auditor regarding the need to have wrist strap testers calibrated or labeled calibration not required. Does anyone know if calibration/verification is required for ESD wrist strap testers?
