AC Current (Frequency, Duty Cycle) Measurements
CAUTION: Do not make 10 A current measurements for longer
than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may cause damage to
the meter and/or the test.
1. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the
negative COM jack.
2. For current measurements up to 4000
µ
A AC, set the
rotary function switch to the yellow
µ
A position and insert
the red test lead banana plug into the
µ
A/mA jack.
3. For current measurements up to 400 mA AC, set the rotary
function switch to the yellow mA position and insert the
red test lead banana plug into the
µ
A/mA jack.
4. For current measurements up to 10 A AC, set the rotary
function switch to the yellow 10A/Hz/% position and insert
the red test lead banana plug into the 10A jack.
5. Press the MODE button to indicate “AC” on the display.
6. Remove power from the circuit under test, then open
at the point where you wish to measure current.
7. Touch the black test probe tip to the neutral side of the
circuit and touch the red test probe tip to the “hot” side
of the circuit.
8. Apply power to the circuit.
9. Read the current in the display.
10. Press the Hz/% button to indicate “Hz”.
11. Read the frequency in the display.
12. Press the Hz/% button again to indicate “%”.
13. Read the percent of duty cycle in the display.
14. Press the Hz/% button to return to current measurement.
