4.6 Continuity Measurement
WARNING:
When testing continuity, make
sure that there is no power in the tested
sample or circuit (dead circuit). This may be
checked by using the voltage functions.
• Turn the rotary range switch to the
range.
• Insert red test lead to the red "
+
" input jack and the
black lead to the black "
COM
" input jack.
• Bring the test probe tips into contact with the sample
under test.
• If the resistance is less than 40Ω, the beeper emits a
continuous sound. The readings on the display are
not valid.
• If overload ≥ 3.0 is displayed, the resistance exceeds
the measurement range or the circuit is open.
WARNING:
Immediately unclamp the meter
from the conductor under test if overload "
"
is displayed.
