The Keysight (Agilent) 16060A Transformer Test Fixture is a specialized accessory for characterizing transformers and inductors across DC to 100 kHz. It enables precise measurement of self-inductance, mutual inductance, turns ratio, and DC resistance when paired with compatible LCR meters and impedance analyzers. The fixture provides a 4-terminal pair BNC interface and alligator clip connections rated for lead wire diameters up to 4 mm, ensuring accurate and repeatable results in laboratory and production test environments.
