b) Voltage Measuring “V”
The voltage range “V AC/DC” shows an input resistance of >10 MOhm.
Proceed as follows to measure AC voltages “V-AC”:
-
Turn the DMM on and select measuring range “VAC”.
-
Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket
(8) and the black measuring lead into the COM measuring
socket (7).
-
Now connect the two measuring probes to the object to be
measured (power outlet, switch etc.).
-
The currently measured value is indicated on the display
-
After measuring, remove the measuring lines from the
measured object and turn the DMM off.
Proceed as follows to measure “V-DC” direct voltages:
-
Turn the DMM on and select measuring range “VDC”.
-
Plug the red measuring lead into the V measuring socket
(8) and the black measuring lead into the COM measuring
socket (7).
-
Now connect the two measuring prods to the object to be
measured (battery, switch etc.). The red measuring prod
corresponds to the positive pole, the black one to the
negative pole.
-
The polarity of the respective measured value is indicated
on the display together with the current measured value.
☞
As soon as a minus “-” appears for the direct vol-
tage in front of the measured value, the measured
voltage is negative (or the measuring tips have
been mixed up).
-
After measuring, remove the measuring lines from the measured object and turn the DMM off.
