An apparatus for measuring the electrical characteristic of a chip-shaped electronic component having first and second external terminal electrodes at first and second opposing ends thereof includes a holder that holds an electronic component with the first and second external terminal electrodes pointing toward first and second open ends of a receiving cavity. The holder is provided with a shield layer extending between first and second measuring terminals, and the shield layer is electrically connected to a measurement reference potential. The shield layer reduces the stray parasitic capacitance adjacent to the electronic component, and reduces measurement errors resulting from size variations of the electronic component.
