POWERING INSTRUMENT
Before beginning to operate the instrument, a power source is necessary for it to turn on.
There are two methods to power the instrument: Battery and external source.
Installing Battery
The 880 LCR meters can use a battery to provide power to the instrument so that it can be
portable.
The meters use a standard 9V size battery (or NEDA 1604, JIS006P, IEC6F22 carbon-zinc or
alkaline battery) or a rechargeable Ni-MH battery.
To install the battery:
1. Place the meter upside down. Open up the back-flip stand, and locate the screw that
tightens the battery compartment cover as indicated in Figure 4. Use a screwdriver to
unscrew and remove the cover.

2. Insert 9V battery into compartment. Note the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals as
indicated inside the battery compartment (See Figure 5). Be sure to insert the battery
with matching polarity.
