Abstract
Existing double probe instruments cannot make equally accurate measurements of all three components of the DC and low frequency E-field. The spin axis booms on spinning spacecraft must be much shorter than spin plane booms and the resulting uncertainty in the spin axis is usually greater than the measured value.
