3. MEASUREMENT METHODS
3.1. Deflection, difference, and null methods
With the deflection method, the result of the measurement is
entirely determined by the readout of the measurement device.

It can be shown that the null condition does not depend on the
power delivered by the power supply, the circuits internal
impedance, or the internal impedance of the null detector.

NB: Note that the difference method and the null method make
use of the compensation method. In the difference method,
the compensation is only partial, whereas in the null method
it is complete.
