Resistance/Continuity
To measure resistance or continuity:
1. Turn the control knob to
.
2. Remove power from the circuit to test.
3. Connect the black test lead to the COM terminal and the red test lead to the V
terminal.
4. Touch the probes to the test points of the circuit.
The display shows the value.
If the resistance is <70
, the beeper sounds continuously to indicate continuity. If the display
shows
, the circuit is open or higher than the measurement range.
Capacitance
The Clamp determines capacitance by charging a capacitor with a known current, measuring the
resulting voltage, then calculating the capacitance.
Note
A good capacitor stores an electrical charge and may remain energized after power is
removed. Before you touch the capacitor or make a measurement, turn all power OFF,
use the Product to conrm that power is OFF, and carefully discharge the capacitor by
connecting a resistor across the leads. Be sure to wear appropriate personal
protective equipment.
To measure capacitance:

3. Remove the capacitor from the circuit and discharge the capacitor.
4. Connect the black test lead to the COM terminal and the red test lead to the V
terminal.
5. Touch the probes to the capacitor leads.
The display shows the measurement.
indicates the capacitor is faulty or the capacitance value is higher then the
measurement range.
