6.2. Current measurements
Warning!
Do not attempt to measure currents in high energy circuits capable of
delivering greater than 600 V. Since the fuse is rated at 600 V damage or
injury could occur. The 10 A input terminal is protected by a 10 A/600 V
high energy, fast blow fuse.
All current ranges are fused. If a current greater than 10 A on the 10 A
range or greater than 500 mA on all other ranges flow, the fuse will blow
causing an open circuit between the current measuring terminal.
1. Insert the BLACK test lead in the COM input terminal.
2. For measuring currents less than 400 mA, connect the red test lead to
the µA/mA input terminal. For measuring currents between 400 mA
and 10 A connect RED test lead to the 10 A terminal.
3. Select the desired current range and select AC/DC by pressing
MODE-button.
Note:
If the 20 A range is selected then the 20 A input terminal must be
selected in step 2. If the µA, mA ranges is selected the mA input
terminal must be selected in step 2.
4. Switch OFF or disconnect the circuit to be measured from all power
sources, connect the multimeter in series with the conductor
in which the current to be measured flows.
5. Switch ON the circuit. Note the reading.
6. Switch OFF or disconnect the circuit and remove the test
leads from multimeter.
