Sonel, a Polish Company are another own manufacturer, I cannot place who makes their multi-meters or if they are their own design.
APPA is the manufacturer of Ideal, Greenlee, Iso-Tech, Jensen, Westward, Benning, some Tektronix and Megger meters, plus other brands.
The way I understand it, at least in the past, APPA was making multimeters for Tektronix but they were a Tektronix design.
I was able to reference the X-Z plane directly. You have a more ways of creating reference planes in the newer versions.
Recently i commented about a RTC test using a STM32 Nucleo-L476. I estimated the out of the box frequency offset as about 10 ppm.
Meanwhile i connected a ublox 6M GPS module to the board and implemented capture of its one second pulse output using timer 1 running from LSE with a 32768 cycle (channel 3). Then i implemented frequency measurement over spans of 65 seconds (linear regression of captured timings). The diagram shows the measured frequency offsets over about 4 hours in units of the RTC smooth calibration unit = 0.954 ppm. Average offset is 9.764 ppm with a standard deviation of 0.031 ppm.
So the clock noise can be as little as one second per year.
