DC CURRENT MEASUREMENTS
J CAUTION: Do not make current measurements on the 20A
scale for longer than 30 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds may
I
cause damage to the meter and/or the test leads.
1. Insert the black test lead banana plug into
the negative COM jack.
2. For current measurements up to 4000EJA DC,
set the function switch to the pA position
and insert the red test lead banana plug into
the pA/mA jack.
3. For current measurements up to 400mA DC,
set the function switch to the rnA position
and insert the red test lead banana plug into
the pA/mA jack.
4. For current measurements up to 10A DC,
set the function switch to the 10A position
and insert the red test lead banana plug into
the 10A jack.
5. Press the MODE button to indicate "DC" on
the display.
6. Remove power from the circuit under test, then open up the
circuit at the point where you wish to measure current.
7. Touch the black test probe tip to the negative side of the
