Measuring; Switching On The Meter - VOLTCRAFT VC275TRMS Bedienungsanleitung

9. MEASURING

Do not exceed the maximum permitted input values. Do not touch any circuits or parts of circuits
if they may be subject to voltages higher than 33 V ACrms or 70 V DC! Danger to life!
Before measuring, check the connected measuring lines for damage such as, for example, cuts,
cracks or squeezing. Defective measuring lines must no longer be used! Danger to life!
During measuring, do not grip beyond the tangible grip range markings present on the measuring
prods.
Only the two measuring lines that are required for measuring operation must be connected to
the meter at any time. Remove all measuring lines not required from the meter for safety reasons
when performing the current measurement.
Measurements in electrical circuits >33 V/AC and >70 V/DC must only be carried out by special-
ists and technically instructed personnel who are familiar with the relevant regulations and the
ensuing risks.
The display shows the corresponding connection sequence of the measuring jacks for each measuring func-
tion. Observe this when connecting the measuring lines to the meter.
If "OL" (overload) appears on the display, you have exceeded the measuring range.
a) Switching on the meter
Turn the dial switch (4) to the corresponding measurement function. To switch off, turn the dial switch to "OFF".
Always turn the measuring device off when it is not in use.
Before working with the meter, you have to insert the enclosed battery. Insertion and changing of the
battery is described in the chapter "Cleaning and maintenance".
