CAPACITANCE MEASUREMENT
WARNING: To avoid electric shock, discharge the
capacitor under test before measuring.
1. Set the function switch to the CAP capacitance
position.
2. Insert the black test lead banana plug into the
negative COM jack and the red test lead banana
plug into the CAP positive jack.
3. Touch the test probe tips across the part under
test.
4. Read the capacitance value in the display.
5. The display will indicate the proper decimal point
and value.
Note: For very large values of capacitance measurement
time can be several minutes before the final reading
stabilizes. The bar graph is disabled in capacitance
measurement mode. The LCD displays DIS. C .Discharging
through the chip is quite slow. We recommend the user to
discharge the capacitor with some other apparatus.
