Current measurement DC/AC4
To take a current measurement, turn
the rotary switch to position „10 A“
and press the „Mode“ button to set
the voltage mode (AC, DC). Disconnect
the circuit before connecting the meter.
Then connect the measuring contacts to
the object to be tested. The measured
value acquired and the polarity appear
on the display. Disconnect the circuit
again before disconnecting the meter.
Do not measure currents above 10 A for longer than
30 seconds. This could damage the device or the test prods.

Connection of test prods
3
The black test prod (–) must always be connected to the „COM
socket“. When taking current measurements, the red test prod (+)
must be connected to the „10 A socket“. For all other measuring
functions, the red test prod must be connected to the „VąHZ
socket“.
Please ensure that the test prods are connected correctly
before each measurement. Taking a voltage measurement
with 10 A current connections plugged in can cause
the installed fuse to trip and result in damage to the
measuring circuit.
