VI - pOwEr pLUS MODE
ARC DETECT IS DISABLED! Use CAUTION
This is an active mode used for activating electrical components similar to PPHM except the Arc Detect feature is dis-
abled. The Power Switch and Circuit Breaker Preferences apply here in Power Plus Mode as they do in PPHM. Power
Plus Mode will measure and display the Min/Max Current draw so you capture in rush and stabilized current. High current
can be an indication of a sticking or dragging motor or pump.
To access Power Plus Mode from PPHM:

3. Contact the probe tip to the positive terminal of the
component.
4. Press (+). The component should activate.
