f) Current measurement in the 10A range

In this range, currents of up to 10A DC/AC can be measured. The current meas -

urement range is provided with a fuse and thus protected against overload.

Proceed as follows to measure direct currents:

- Connect the black measuring line with the COM socket

(7) and the red measuring line with the 10A socket (8).

- Set the range selection switch (5) to position "A".

Now connect the two test prods in series with the

object to be measured (battery, switching etc.); the

polarity of the measuring figure concerned will be indi-

cated together with the current measuring value on the

display (1).

Proceed as follows to measure alternating currents:

- Connect the black measuring line with the COM socket (7) and the red measuring

line with the 10A socket (8).

- Set the range selection switch (5) to position "A".

- Press the "MODE" button to change into the AC range; if you press it again you

return to the DC range.

- Now connect the two test prods in series with the object to be measured (genera-

tor, switching etc.); the current measuring value will be indicated on the display (1).



Never measure currents higher than 10A.

Measurements within the 10A range may not last longer than 30s

and may only be performed in intervals of 15 minutes (cooling-

down phase for the shunt (measuring resistor)).
