Capacitance Measurement - Tenmars TM-86 User Manual

3.Connect the test leads to the circuit under test. The
duty cycle value is shown at display.
4.If the message "O.L" is displayed the maximum
readable value is reached.
5.For HOLD function please refer to paragraph 4.2.

4.3.10. Capacitance measurement

Before taking capacitance measurements in
circuit remove power from the circuit being
tested and discharge all capacitors.
Use the short test lead pair for measurement
to reduce the stray capacitance. Before
connecting the test capacitor observe the
display, which may have a reading other than
zero every time the range is changed.
Subtract this offset reading from the
displayed reading of the test result of a
capacitor to obtain the true value.
Connect the test capacitor to the inputs
respecting the polarity connections when
required.
