j) Capacity Measuring

Make sure that all circuit parts, circuits and components and other objects of measurement are

disconnected from the voltage and discharged.

Always observe polarity with electrolyte capacitors.

- Turn the DMM on and select measuring function “Capac-

ity”

- Plugthe redmeasuringlineintotheΩmeasuringjack

(E) and the black measuring line into the COM measur-

ing jack (D).

Due to the sensitive measuring input, the display

may show a value if the measuring lines are

“open”.Bypressingthebutton“REL”,thedisplay

issetto“0”.TheAutorangefunctionremainsac-

tive.

- Connect the two measuring prods (red = plus/black = mi-

nus) with the object to be measured (capacitator). After

a short time the display shows the capacity. Wait until

the displayed value has stabilised. This may take a few

seconds for capacities of >40 µF.

- If“OL”(overload)appearsonthedisplay,youhaveex-

ceeded the measuring range.

- Remove the measuring lines from the object to be meas-

ured after completion of the measurement and switch off

the DMM.
