8. Measuring of Capacitance (CAP)
(1) Set the rotary dial to “ “; Press “SELECT” button on
the measuring function range three times to select
Capacitance.
(2) Connect the red and black test probes to the two
sides of the capacitor to be tested and the instrument
will select the correct range. The display screen will
display the current value of capacitance.
Warning:
During the measurement of capacitance, the power
must be isolated before connecting, and the residual
electric charge of all capacitors must be fully discharged.
More accurate measurement may be possible when
the elements are separated from the circuit. Before
measuring the capacitance, the “REL” key should be
pressed to clear the base number to eliminate the
effect of probe parasitic capacitance.
Note:
At the range 60nF, it is suggested to firstly press
the “REL” key to clear the short circuit base number
before measurement, to eliminate impact of probe
resistance.
