Measuring DC Current
V AC
V AC
Current measurements expecting to be between 400 mA and 10 A are made using the
Input LO and 10A input connectors as shown in Figure 4-5.
Refer to the “Range Keys” section in Chapter 3 of this manual for information on how to
adjust the measurement range.
To measure dc current:
1. Connect the test leads between the Meter’s input connectors and the measured circuit
2. Press H.
I > 400 mA
I < 400 mA
I < 10 A
as shown in Figure 4-4 for currents 400 mA or less or Figure 4-5 for currents up to
10 amps.
