Default Question regarding the AADE L/C meter

I don't believe that is correct.

What you are measuring is the net result of the interwinding
capacitance PLUS the reactance of the coil, but it is only correct at
the frequency of the test. Change the frequency and you will get a
different answer. You are NOT measuring the interwinding capacitance
alone.
