Automatic Discharge Function
3.4 Automatic Discharge Function
After the measurement, discharge the electric charge in the object under
measurement.
When insulation resistance with a capacitance component is measured, this
component remains charged with a high-voltage equivalent to the test voltage, which
is dangerous.
This instrument can automatically discharge remaining electric charge using the
internal circuit after measurement.
With the test leads connected to the object under measurement, press the
MEASURE key to end measurement.
The charge remaining in the object under measurement is automatically discharged
with the discharge resistance inside the instrument.
During discharge, the voltage is displayed and the
mark and MEASURE key
continue blinking.
The bar graph decreases according to the voltage.

During discharge
Discharging stops when the residual voltage falls below 30 V. The mark goes out.
The discharge time varies depending on the capacitance.
