BASIC MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS
MEASURING VOLTAGE
WARNING
Risk of Electrocution. For determining whether a
circuit is “live” exercise caution if the meter does not report
a voltage. This may indicate a poor connection to the
circuit being tested. Make sure the probe tips are fully in
contact with the circuit before assuming the circuit is safe.
Two of the Mooshimeter’s input terminals are capable of making
basic voltage measurements:
The
V
terminal can measure up to 600V RMS and is intended for
traditional AC and DC voltage measurements.
The
Ω
terminal can measure up to 1V peak (~0.7V RMS for pure-
sine AC) and allows for several new measurement techniques
described later in this manual.
See the ratings section for further details on the measurement
ranges.
