1. Insert the black test lead into the
COM
input jack.
2. For current measurements up to 10A AC/DC,
set the rotary function switch to the
10A
position and insert the red test lead into
the
10A
input jack.
3. For current measurements up to 400mA
AC/DC, set the rotary function switch to
the
mA
position and insert the red test
lead into the
mA
input jack.
4. For current measurements up to 4000µA
AC/DC, set the rotary function switch to
the
µA
position and insert the red test lead
into the
mA
input jack.
5. Press the
MODE
button to select AC or
DC current. The “
AC
” or “
DC
” symbol
will appear on the LCD display.
6. Remove power from the circuit under test,
then open up the circuit at the point where
you wish to measure current.
7. Touch the test lead probes in series with
the circuit being measured. For DC current,
touch the red probe to the positive side of
the circuit and touch the black probe to the
negative side of the circuit.
8. Apply power to the circuit.
9. Read the current on the LCD display.
AC/DC Current Measurements
Observe all safety precautions when
working on live circuits. Do not measure current on circuits
that exceed 600V. Measurements in the 10A range should
be limited to 30 seconds every 15minutes.
