Measurement Operation (8)
D. DC or AC Current Measurement
(see figure 9)
Warning
Never attempt an in-circuit current measurement
where the open-circuit voltage between the circuit
and ground is greater than 250V.
If the fuse burns out during measurement, the Meter
may be damaged or the operator himself may be
hurt. Use proper terminals, function, and range for
the measurement. When the testing leads are
connected to the current terminals, do not parallel
them across any circuit.
The current measurement has 3 measurement positions
on the rotary switch:
A
Hz, mA
Hz
or
Hz
A
.
The
A
Hz
has a 340.0 A and 3400 A range, with
auto ranging; the
mA
Hz
has a 34.00mA and 340.0mA
range, with auto ranging;
Hz
A
position has only a
10.00A range, with manual ranging only.
To measure current, do the following:
1.
Turn off power to the circuit. Discharge all high-
voltage capacitors.
2.
Insert the red test lead into the
AmA
or
10A
or
terminal and the black test lead into the
COM
terminal.
