4 Characteristics and Specifications
When using the multimeter in an environment where
electromagnetic interference or significant electrostatic
charge is present, measurement accuracy may be reduced.
NOTE
• The voltage measurement probes are not shielded and can
act as antennas allowing electromagnetic interference to
be added to the signal being measured.
• Electrostatic discharges of 4000 V or greater may cause
the multimeter to temporarily stop responding, resulting
in a lost or erroneous reading.
