Introduction 

 

The Triplett MM650 features True RMS measurements for more 
accurate AC readings and a Low Z setting for eliminating false 
readings caused by “ghost” voltages. Functions include AC/DC 
voltage and current, resistance, continuity, capacitance, frequency, 
duty cycle, temperature, and diode test. The MM650 also offers the 
added convenience of a built-in LED flashlight. This meter is fully
