La division par dix d'une valeur déterminée donne un dixième. Ce dixième peut à son tour être divisé en dix et ainsi de suite. La précision d'une lecture dépend du nombre de décimales. Les boîtes à décades, insérées dans une branche d'un pont, permettent d'obtenir une précision remarquable dans la lecture. On réalise des boîtes à décades en capacités à partir de 1 nF (pour éviter l'influence des capacités résiduelles). 3, record 2, French, - bo%C3%AEte%20%C3%A0%20d%C3%A9cades
