6.3. Measuring Resistance
WARNING!
* Never connect the test leads to a source of voltage when
you have the selected the OHMS function and plugged
the test leads into the V//Hz-terminal.
* Be sure that the circuit under test has all power removed
and that any associated capacitors are fully discharged
before you make a resistance measurement.
1. Set the rotary selector to the desired OHM function.
2. Plug the black test lead into your meter’s COM terminal
and the red test lead into your meter’s V//Hz-terminal.
3. Connect the test leads to the
device you want to measure
and read the measurement
value.
4. Remove all test leads after the
measurement.
Notes:
* When you short the test leads in the 200 range, your
meter displays a small value (no more than 0.3). This
value is due to your meter’s and test leads internal
resistance. Press REL to subtract it from small resistance
measurements for better accuracy.
Always take care of a good connection, as a bad
connection influences the resistance measurement.
