2.2 Current Measurements (DC & AC)
The ranges for DC current measurements in DL-2060 are 10mA, 100mA, 1A and 3A. For
AC current measurements, the range is 1A with a sensitivity of 1
μ
A to 3A AC-Coupled
TRMS with a sensitivity of 10
μ
A.
Figure 3-4
and
3-5
show you how to measure DC/AC
currents in DL-2060.
Warning! The maximum input current allowed is 3A, 250V. Do not apply excess
current to your meter to avoid damaging the fuse of current input.
※
Note: To eliminate the thermal EMFs due to the differences between two metals, use
copper leads to connect your source signal to the meter.
How to measure current
①
Selects input signal connections on front or rear panel.
②
Connect the test leads to the terminals as shown in
Figure 3-4
.
③
Set RESOLUTION of DCI (Refer to 3.1.3), BANDWIDTH of ACI (Refer to 3.1.2.1) or
skip this step if default is to be used.
④
Press SHIFT+DCI(DCV) or SHIFT+ ACI(ACV) buttons for DCI or ACI measurement.
⑤
Select the auto-range function by pressing AUTO button on the front panel or use
△
and
▽
buttons to select desired range.
⑥
Connect test leads to your source signal and observe the reading shown on the
display. If the input signal is greater than the allowed range, an overflow message
“OVLD” will be displayed.
