During continuity measurement current flows from battery positive through the Brown (VΩ) 
lead, external circuit resistance, Green (COM) lead, meter resistance and finally back to the 
battery negative. 
The current and voltage are measured as shown and the external resistance calculated. 
When the leads have previously been nulled, their resistance is subtracted before displaying 
the reading. 

The purpose of Continuity Testing is to establish the resistance of the circuit under test.

Test Procedure
Insert the brown test lead into the brown input terminal & the green test lead into the green 
terminal.

The brown test lead can be substituted by using the brown remote test probe supplied. This 
allows remote activation of the KT63 PLUS from the safety of the test probe ensuring that you 
are always looking at the point of contact and not the KT63 PLUS.
