Frequently asked questions

What safety precautions should be taken when measuring voltages greater than 25VAC rms?

Use great care when making measurements if the voltages are greater than 25VAC rms or 35VDC, as these are considered a shock hazard.

How long can 20A current measurements be made?

Do not make 20A current measurements for longer than 30 seconds, as exceeding this time may cause damage to the meter and/or test leads.

What should be done if 'OL' appears in the display?

If 'OL' appears, the value exceeds the selected range, and the user should change to a higher range.
