• Maximum Voltage Drop: 200 mV
1. Connect the black test lead to
the “COM” Jack. Connect the
red test lead to the “mA” Jack for
testing currents less than 200mA,
or connect the red test lead to
the “10A” Jack when measuring
current between 200mA and 10A.
2. Set the Function/Range switch to the
desired A range. If the current to be
measured is not known beforehand,
set the switch to the highest range and
then turn it down range by range until
satisfactory resolution is obtained.
3. Open the circuit in which the current
is to be measured, and connect the
test leads in series with the circuit.
4. Read the current value displayed
on the LCD along with the
polarity of the red test lead.
5. CAUTION! Only test currents
higher than 200mA for 15 seconds
or less. The meter must cool,
disconnected, for 15 minutes between
measurements of that kind.
