SAFETY INFORMATION

The Meter complies with:

IEC/EN 61010-1 3rd Edition, UL61010-1 2nd Ed. and CAN/CSA C22.2 No.

61010.1-0.92 to Category III 600 Volts, Pollution degree 2

Measurement Category III (CAT III) is for measurements performed in the

building installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards,

circuit- breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches,

socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use

and some other equipment, for example, stationary motors with permanent

connection to the fixed installation.

Electromagnetic compatibility directive 2014/30/EC

Warning: Read Before Using

• To avoid possible electrical shock or personal injury, follow these

instructions and use the Meter only as specified in this manual.

• Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the

Meter is not operating properly. If in doubt, have the Meter serviced.

• Always use the proper function and range for measurements.

• Before rotating the function range selection switch, disconnect test

probe from circuit under test.

• Verify the Meter’s operation by measuring on a known voltage source.

• Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter,

between the test probe or between any test probe and earth ground.

• Use the Meter with caution for voltages above 30 Vac rms, 42 Vac peak,

or 60 Vdc. These voltages pose electrical shock hazards.

• Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before

testing resistance.

• Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor.

• When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards.

• Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or

battery door.

MAKING MEASUREMENT



1. Use the proper function and range for measurements.

2. To avoid possible electrical shock, personal injury or damages to the

Meter, disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors

before testing resistance and diode.

3. Connecting test leads:

• Connect the common (COM) test lead to the circuit before connecting

the live lead;

• After measurement, remove live lead before removing the common

(COM) test lead from the circuit

4. Symbol “OL” is displayed on LCD when the measurement is out of range.

Measuring AC and DC Current

Press SELECT button to select AC or DC current measurement function.

To avoid personal injury or damage to the Meter:

1. Do not attempt to make an in-circuit current measurement when the

open-circuit potential to earth ground exceeding 600V.

2. Switch to proper function and range for your measurement.

3. Do not place the test probe in parallel with a circuit when the test leads

are connected to the current terminals.

4. Connect the test leads to the correct input A/mA μA current terminal and

to the circuit before powering the circuit under test.

5. For current range from 8-10A, do not measure current for more than 20

minutes. Wait for 10 minutes before taking another measurement

6. After measurement, switching OFF the circuit’s power before removing

test leads from the circuit.
