4.3.10 Current Measurement (µA/mA/A)
W ARNIN G
To avoid damage to instrument or equipment
• Before starting measurement, make sure that the position of function switch and the
input terminals for connecting the test leads are appropriate for the desired mode of
measurement.
• The maximum input current (limited by fuses) of the “µA” and “mA” ranges is 440 mA.
Be sure not to exceed the limit in the 500 mA range.
Be careful not to burn yourself
• When measuring more than 6A under exceeding 40℃ conditions, the continuous
measuring time shall be within 3 minutes, then keep disconnected for more than 10
minutes.
1) Turn the function switch to the “µA ” , “mA ” or “A ”position.
(If the magnitude of the current being measured is not known,
select the “A ”position. Make sure the current being measured
is no more than 440mA before the “µA ” or “mA ” position is
selected.)
2) Please select between DC and AC. When selecting AC, press
the SELECT key.
3) Plug the black test lead into the “ COM ” input terminal and the
red test lead into the “A ”input terminal.
If the current is in the order of mA or less, plug the red test lead
into the “µA • mA” input terminal.
4) Connect the test leads to the circuit under test and then read the
value when it stabilizes.
