U1701B Quick Start Guide
Capacitance Measurement
Procedure:
1
Press
to power-on the meter.
2
To test for capacitance, keep an open circuit on the test leads and
press
to subtract the residual capacitance of the meter and
leads.
3
Insert the capacitor legs into
+
and
–
input terminals respectively.
Ensure that the polarity of the capacitor’s leg are correct.
4
Remove your hands from capacitor to allow it to be tested.
5
Read the measurement on the display.
