d) Current Measurement
for a current measurement always follow the order of the specified users.
Do not exceed the maximum permitted measuring values. Always make sure that the given
measurement object is disconnected from the electrical current before the measurement points
are placed, or when the size of the measurement is changed. If the points should slip there is
the danger of a very serious electrical shock.

• Connect the black measuring line to the COM socket “8” and the
red one to the socket “DC/AC mA 100 mV”.
• Set the adjustment wheel “4” to the area for current measurement
DC/AC mA and the slider “5” to “DC, , Ω“
• Connect the two measuring prods with the object to be measured.
Make sure that the given measurement object is disconnected
from the electrical current.
• The measuring value is shown on the analogue scale “1”. Take the value and multiply it with
the values of the following table:
