Conductance for High Resistance Tests
Conductance, the reverse of resistance, is the ability of a circuit to
pass current. High values of conductance correspond to low values of
resistance. The unit of conductance is the Siemens (S).
5.3.2 Capacitance Measurement
Caution
To avoid damaging the meter or the equipment under test, remove all
power from the circuit and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before
measuring capacitance.
Large value capacitors should be discharged through an appropriate
resistance load. Use the DC voltage function to confirm that the capacitor
is discharged.
The available capacitance ranges are: 5nF, 50nF, 500nF, 5µF, 50µF
500µF and 5mF.
