... moisture meters may give a «zero» indication. This zero is mechanical or electrical according to the principle of measurement of the instrument. For moisture meters with direct indication of the moisture content - that is to say not requiring the use of conversion tables - zero may represent the result of a measurement when the measuring cell is empty or the indication of the instrument when the measuring operations have not yet been initiated.
