INTRODUCTION
The Triplett Model 310-TEL is a handy hand-sized VOM
with all the versatility and performance of larger, more
expensive bench-size models. It offers diode over-
load protection against damage to the meter move-
ment caused by accidental overloads. A fuse is used
to protect the RX1 range. The fuse and batteries can
be easily replaced by removing the back cover.
Small enough to be carried in your tool box, glove com-
partment, brief case, or shirt pocket, the Model 310-
TEL allows you to have 20,000 ohms per volt DC and
5,000 ohms per volt AC sensitivity wherever you need
it.
A convenient Polarity Reversing Switch electrically
reverses the test lead connections, correcting acciden-
tal downscale readings and permitting “capacitive kick”
readings on the Ohmeter ranges.
Versatility and readability have not been sacrificed in
order to provide a portable VOM. The Model 310-TEL
offers 16 different ranges that can be easily read on
only 3 clearly defined scale areas. A single selector
switch allows you to switch easily from range to range
and function to function.
