Attention!
Do not measure any currents in circuits in which
voltages greater than 250 VDC or
can oc-
cur, to avoid damaging the measuring device and
endangering life as a result. Never measure cur-
rents over 20 A. Measure only in circuits themselves
fused at 16 A and in which no power greater than
4000 VA can occur.
Measurements of currents at 20 A may be for 30 s
duration maximum and be carried out only at inter-
vals of 15 minutes (shunt cooling phase).
E Continuity testing
With this function, voltage-free wiring, fuses, circuits, etc. can be
acoustically tested for continuity. For this measurement, proceed
as follows:
1. Connect the black test lead to the COM socket and the red test
lead to the V/Ohm socket.
2. Set the rotary switch to “Ohm
(= continuity testing or resi-
stance measurement). Then connect the test probes to the com-
pletely voltage-free test object.
3. If the continuity resistance is less than some 50 Ohm, then an
acoustic signal sounds and the symbol
appears at the bot-
tom left in the display
Attention!
Do not measure charged capacitors because a
.
sible discharge may damage the measuring
ment.
