DC Voltage
•
Select the DC voltage measurement option (
) with the rotary switch.
•
Connect the test leads as required to begin measurement.
CAUTION
Use extra caution when measuring high voltages to avoid electric shock or damage.
WARNING
Do not attempt to measure voltages above
600V DC
to prevent injury or damage to the meter.
5.5
AC Voltage
•
Select the AC voltage measurement option (
) with the rotary switch.
•
Connect the test leads as required to begin measurement.
CAUTION
Use extra caution when measuring high voltages to avoid electric shock or damage.
WARNING
Do not attempt to measure voltages above
600V DC
to prevent injury or damage to the meter.
5.6
AC Current
•
Select the AC voltage measurement option (
) with the rotary switch.
•
Insert only one conductor inside the current clap to begin measuring (Multiple
conductors with different current directions will cancel the measurement out).
5.7
Resistance
•
Turn off all power and discharge the capacitors of the circuit to be tested.
•
Select the resistance measurement option (
Ω
) with the rotary switch.
•
Connect the test leads as required to begin measurement.
•
Measuring tips:
o
Sometimes the resistor value and measured resistance differ. This is due to
the meter’s output test current going through all possible paths between
leads.
o
For low resistance measurements, shorten the test leads and record the
resistance displayed. Then connect to the circuit and subtract the recorded
resistance from the measured value for the most accurate results.
o
When the leads are disconnected or the measurement is out of range, “
OL
”
will be shown on the display.
WARNING
To avoid injury or damage to the meter, make sure to turn off
all power and discharge all capacitors before measuring resistance.
