c. Before connecting the test leads across the two sides of the capacitor under measurement, be sure that
the capacitor has been fully discharged.
d. The capacitance will be displayed on the LCD.
Note:
a.
The capacitance of a capacitor should be tested separately, do not test a capacitor while it is
connected to a circuit.
b.
To avoid electric shock, be sure the capacitors have been fully
discharged before measuring the capacitance of a capacitor.
c.
While testing the capacitance of a capacitor up to 660uF, the Maximum
testing time is 6.6 seconds. If the capacitor is leaking or otherwise damaged, no data will be
displayed. The tester will resume normal operation after disconnecting the capacitor.
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, be sure the capacitors have been fully discharged before measuring the
capacitance of a capacitor.
