5.6 Capacitance measurement
1. Connect the black test lead
to
and the red test
lead to
or use
the multi-purpose socket*
(if you are measuring loose
components).
2. Set the function selector
to
for measuring
capacitance.
3. Press the blue button (10)
to select the nF
measurement mode.
4. The meter will show a fixed value (approx 10 nF) before measuring has begun.
This is the internal capacitance of the meter. To obtain accurate readings of
low-capitance components, press [ REL
▲
/RS 232 (USB) ] to remove the internal
capacitance error from the reading on the display.
5. There are two methods of measurement:
The multi-purpose socket can be used for
measuring normal capacitors or surface-
mounted capacitors. Connect the capacitor
to the respective positive and negative jack of
the multi-purpose socket. This method is better
for measuring small capacitances.
Or use this method:
Connect the test leads across the object
being measured.
Note:
It will take longer for the reading to stabilize if the capacitance is over 100 μF.
will appear on the display if the capacitor is shorted or if it has a value exceeding
the maximum range.
*The multi-purpose socket should be connected to
and
.
