 In this tutorial, the impedance of a 10nF capacitor is measured. Referring to the previous table, a 10kOhm reference resistor is required for this value of capacitance. Refer to the "Load First" diagram to the right for how to set up this circuit (the capacitor is the load and the reference resistor is the resistor in the diagram.)  In this tutorial, the impedance of a 10nF capacitor is measured.
