1500 A minimum breaking capacity, IEC-127 Sheet I.
•
The 10 A input is protected by a fuse rated at F 15 A, 250 V (Fast blow), 10,000 A

Testing Current Input Fuses
Perform the following procedure to test these fuses:
1. Plug a test lead into the
X input terminal and power-up the meter.
2. Press
O to select the ohms function.
3. Insert the test lead probe into the 100 mA input terminal.
If the fuse is good, the meter will read between 11
Ω
and 15
Ω
. If the fuse is blown,
the meter will read >10 M
Ω
to OL.
4. Remove the test lead probe from the 100 mA input terminal and insert it into the 10A
input terminal.
