4.6.6. 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 LCD
displays DSC when discharging. Discharging through the chip is
quite slow. We recommend the user to discharge the capacitor with
some other apparatus.
4.6.7. Low resistance measurement
WARNING!
To avoid electric shock, disconnect power to the unit under test and
discharge
all
measurements.
1. Insert the red test leads banana plug into E2,P2 red com
jack,and black test leads banana plug into E1,P1 black com
jack.
2. At the range of 40 , connect the clips to the low resistance's
terminals, If the reading is too low then switch the range to 4
or 400m .
