For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
Set the Rotary Switch to the “300V~” position.
Connect the Red Test Lead to the hot source or load to be measured, and the Black
Test Lead to the neutral source to be measured.
Read the voltage value (VAC) on the LCD Display Screen.
Measuring AC Current
Set the Rotary Switch to the desired AC current range.
Press the Trigger to open the Clamp Jaw. Clamp the Jaw on one of the wires to be
tested. Keep the wire in the center of the Jaw. NOTE: Only one wire can be tested
at a time, or else the readings from two wires will cancel each other and result in a
false reading.
CAUTION: Do not touch current bearing AC wires with your hand.
Read the reading on the display.
Measuring Resistance
NOTE: Before measuring resistance, be sure the power to the circuit has been
disconnected and all capacitors have been discharged.
Insert the plug of the Black Test Lead into the COM jack. Insert the Red Test Lead
into the Red jack.
Set the Rotary Switch to the desired resistance range, either 2000 Ohms or 200
kOhms.
Connect the Red Test Lead to the hot source or load to be measured, and the Black
Test Lead to the neutral source to be measured.
Read the resistance value on the LCD Display Screen.
NOTE: The buzzer will sound if measured resistance is less than approximately 30
Ohms with the rotary switch in the 2000 Ohm position.
Measuring for Continuity
Insert the plug of the Black Test Lead into the COM jack. Insert the Red Test Lead
into the Red jack.
Set the Rotary Switch to the continuity position.
Connect the Red Test Lead to the hot source or load to be measured, and the Black
Test Lead to the neutral source to be measured.
Read the resistance value on the LCD Display Screen. NOTE: The buzzer will sound
if measured resistance is less than approximately 30 Ohms.
Measuring a Diode
Insert the plug of the Black Test Lead into the COM jack. Insert the Red Test Lead
into the Red jack. NOTE: The polarity of the Red Test Lead is “+”.
