Measuring DC or AC Current
WARNING
:
Never attempt an in-circuit current
measurement where the open-
circuit potential to earth is greater
than 250 V. Doing so will cause
damage to the multimeter and
possible electric shock or personal
injury.
CAUTION
:
To avoid possible damage to the
multimeter or to the equipment
under test, check the multimeter’s
fuse before measuring current.
Use the proper terminals, function,
and range for your measurement.
Never place the test leads in
parallel with any circuit or
component when the leads are
plugged into the current terminals.
