In 4-Wire connections the voltage dro across long excitation lead wires of strain
gauge bridge may cause measurement errors. The out ut of a strain gauge
bridge also de ends on the stability of excitation voltage. To correct for voltage
dro and changes in excitation voltage, 6-wire in ut configuration and ratio
measurement are used.
In order for the Ratiometric to work ro erly, the External Excitation
should not dro below 4.6 Vdc.
