WARNING:
Do not connect more than 10 A DC current across
the 10A input terminal or the protection fuse will
be tripped.
Make AC Current Measurements
For current measurements, the low current measurement mode supports
two ranges. Use the low current mA input terminal to measure current up
to 600 mA. High current measurements also support two ranges. In this
mode you can measure up to 10 A by connecting to the 10A input terminal.
AC Current ranges: 60 mA (low), 600 mA (low), 6 A (high), and 10 A (high).
CAUTION:
Always connect the test leads to the instrument
inputs first before connecting the DUT to avoid
potential shock hazard.
Low Current Measurements (< 600 mA)
Follow these steps to make measurements < 600 mA.
1.
Connect the black test lead to the COM input.
2.
Connect the red test lead to the mA input.
3.
Probe with the test leads to the DUT and take the measured reading
on display.
