A systematic numerical study concerning the applicability of a new criterion for the removal of the 180 deg ambiguity in sign of vector magnetograph measurements (Wu & Ai 1990) is presented. This criterion based on the condition divergence of B identical to 0 alone, is free of any assumption concerning the divergence (convergence) of the magnetic field with the height. Some twenty analytical (force-free field and potential field) models covering a variety of possible magnetic configurations are used as test cases for our study. The limitations of the method are also indicated.
