or alternating) and connect the test leads to the measurement
points. For currents higher than 200 mA, connect the test leads to
the 10 A (red) and COM (black) jacks.
Measuring resistance
Connect the black test lead to the COM jack and the read test lead
to the V-Ω-Hz jack, selecting the correct range.
Measuring capacities
