    • When connecting circuits, connect the common test Electric Symbols line first, then connect the charged test line. When Important safety information disconnecting circuits, disconnect the charged test line first, then disconnect the common test line. Before measuring resistance, continuity, and diodes, AC (Alternating Current) first turn off power and discharge all high voltage capacitors.
