Capacitance Measurements 
WCaution 
To prevent damage to the Product or to the 
equipment under test, disconnect circuit 
power and discharge all high-voltage 
capacitors before you measure capacitance. 
Use the dc voltage function to make sure that 
the capacitor is discharged. 
The capacitance ranges of the Product are 10.00 nF, 
100.0 nF, 1.000 μF, 10.00 μF, 100.0 μF, and 9999 μF. 
To measure capacitance, set up the Product as shown in 
Figure 6. 
For the best capacitance measurement accuracy on 
capacitance less than 1000 nF, use the relative (REL) 
mode to subtract the remaining capacitance of the 
Product and leads. 
Note 
When a capacitor under test has too much 
electrical charge, the display shows “diSC“.
