General information

There is a second fuse with a fuse holder located in the front panel of the multimeter. This is an over

current protection fuse for the low current measurement input. It is rated for a T2AL, 250 V fuse. To

remove and replace this fuse, see the illustration below:

There is a third fuse located inside the instrument which protects the 12 A input terminal if current

exceeds the maximum rating. It is a 6 x 32 mm 250V, 20 A fast acting high energy ceramic fuse.

To remove, use a flat head screw driver or a coin to

insert into the slid and turn counter-clockwise to

open. Similarly to put back the fuse box, push the

box down and turn clockwise.
