During Use; General Description - KNOVA KN 8052 Manual

DURING USE
• Never exceed the protection limit values indicated in the specifications
for each range of measurement.
• When the meter is linked to measurement circuit, do not touch the
unused terminals.
• Never use the meter to measure voltages that might exceed 600V
above earth ground in category II installations.
• When the value scale to be measured is unknown beforehand, set the
range selector at the highest position.
• Before rotating the range selector to change functions, disconnect test
leads from the circuit under test.
• When carrying out measurements on TV or switching power circuits
always remember that there may be high amplitude voltages pulses
at test points, which can damage the meter.
• Always be careful when working with voltages above 60Vdc or 30V ac
rms. Keep fingers behind the probe barriers when making voltage
measurements with test leads.
• Never perform resistance measurements on live circuits.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The meter is a handheld 31/2 digital multimeter for measuring
DC and AC voltage, DC current, Resistance, Diode, and
Continuity Test, battery operated.
The meter has a back light function to be used in a dark
environment.
