How to Make Measurements
The sections that follow tell how to make measurements
with the Meter.
To connect the test leads to the circuit or device, connect
the common (COM) test lead first. To remove the test
leads, remove the common test lead last.
AC and DC Voltage Measurements
The voltage ranges are 600.0 mV, 6.000 V, 60.00 V,
600.0 V, and 1000 V. To set the 600.0 mV dc or ac range,
turn the function switch to . Millivolts ac is set first.
Push to switch to millivolts dc.
Refer to Figure 1 to measure ac or dc voltage.
For voltage measurements, the Meter puts approximately
10 MΩ (10,000,000 Ω) in parallel with the circuit. This load
can cause measurement errors in high-impedance circuits.
In most cases, the error is negligible (0.1 % or less) if the
circuit impedance is 10 kΩ (10,000 Ω) or less.
