Note:

● For safety’s sake, the measuring time for high current should be ≤10

second for each measurement and the interval time between two

measurement should be greater than 5 minutes.

● When current measurement has been completed, disconnect the

connection between the testing lead and the circuit under test.

5-7.Capacitance measurement

Note:To avoid damage to the instrument or device under test to measure

capacitance previously, should cut off all power of the circuit to be measured

and all high-voltage capacitors discharge. DC voltage function determines the

capacitor has been discharged.

Capacitance is component's ability to store charge.

The unit of capacitance is ferrari (F). Most of the value of the capacitor is in the

law (nF) between micro method (F). Instrument is through the capacitor

charging (with a known current and time), then measure the voltage, then

calculate capacitance value. 1000 mu F measuring takes about eight seconds,

the faster the smaller capacitance measurement. Instrument test more than

500 mu F, there will be a slight jumps phenomenon.

Measurement of capacitance
