It is recommended that the voltage and low current leads be high quality screened cable with gold

plated 4mm plugs fitted. The cable must be able to withstand 1025 volts AC and have an insulation

resistance greater than 1 TOhm to avoid introducing any shunting effect on the high resistance

ranges.

Poor quality test leads will introduce noise, thermal emf and leakage errors on low voltage & current

ranges and also unstable readings on resistance and capacitance outputs (see measurement

techniques ). Special test leads are available from Transmille, see accessories.

WARNING

OBSERVE ALL MAXIMUM INPUT RATINGS WHEN PERFORMING MEASUREMENTS

Input Overloads

If the multimeter is unable to measure the input due to over range, the display will indicate
