Measuring Current
The Meter is capable of making ac and dc current measurements up to 10 A.
To perform a current measurement:
To avoid blowing the current fuse or damaging the Meter, do
not apply power to the circuit under test until test leads are
properly installed to the appropriate input terminals. For current
measurements above 200 mA, install the test leads into the 10 A
and LO terminals only.
1. Turn off power to the circuit under test.
2. Connect test leads between the Meter and the circuit under test.
3. If the circuit current is unknown, start by using the 10 A and LO terminals.
4. If the measurement is expected to be below 200 mA, connect the test leads to the
5. For measurements expected to be 200 mA to 10 A, connect the test leads to the
6. Press B to measure ac current or press E to measure dc current.
7. Apply power to the circuit under test.
