Continuity Testing and Resistance Measurement

Attention!

Be absolutely certain that the device under test is
voltage-free. Extraneous voltages distort the
measurement results!

➭

Set the selector switch to “ “.

➭

Connect the DUT as shown.

Continuity Testing

The instrument generates a continuous acoustic signal at a
measured resistance of 0 ... approx. < 40


