Before removing the battery and fuse compartment cover,
ensure that the instrument is disconnected from any circuit
and power switch is in the off position.
Capacitance ( C) Measuring Procedure
·
Estimate the capacitance of the measured capacitor and
set the range rotary switch from “OFF” to a expecting
range.
·
Connect BLACK test lead into “ ” socket and RED lead
into “ ” socket.
·
Connect the alligator clips to the lead of the capacitor be
measured.
·
Confirm display show“0000”firstly, low test range (such as
200 pF
、
2 nF
、
20 nF) need to adjust “ADJ” to be zero.
·
Connect the measured capacitor and press “TEST/DIS”
button to discharge (observe polarity when connecting
polarity capacitor).
·
Release “TEST/DIS” button measuring.
·
Read the display, the value is direct reading in the unit (pF,
nF, uF or mF) indicated at the selected range switch. If
display show “1”, it means out-of-range measurement. If
the display indicates one or more leading zeros, shift to the
next lower range scale to improve the resolution of the
measurement.
NOTE:
a) If the capacitance value is unmarked, start with the
