Resistance (Ω)
Used for “ohming out” a compressor. A 0.01Ω resolution is useful to
test the resistance between the terminal poles because the values are
typically very low. For best practice, use a megger (Fieldpiece SMG5) to
measure motor winding insultion to ground.

Perfect for checking isolated fuses, use the continuity function to test
whether a circuit is open (no beep, no green LED) or closed (beep and
green LED). Press SELECT once to enter Continuity mode.

Test diodes for proper forward and reversed-biased functions. A
voltage will display in forward-bias and “OL” in reversed-bias. Press SELECT
twice to enter Diode mode.
