Ac/Dc Current Measurements - Futech MULTIPOWER 4.6 User Manual

NOTE
Observe all safety precautions when working
on live voltages!
Do not connect to circuits that exceed 600V
AC/DC when the meter is set to Low Z!
Low Z is used when there is a suspicion of a
"ghost" voltage. Ghost voltages are present when
non-powered wires are in close proximity to wires
powered by AC voltages. Capacitive coupling
between wires make it appear that non-powered
wires are connected to a real source of voltage.
The low Z setting places a load on the circuit,
which dissipates and greatly reduces ghost
voltage.
· Set the rotary function switch [05] to the Low Z
position.
· Press the MODE-button [04] to select AC or DC
voltage. The AC "~" [S] or DC " " [Q] symbol
will appear on the display.
· Insert the black test lead into the COM input
jack [08] and the red test lead into the V input
jack [09]. If measuring DC voltage, touch the
red test lead to the positive side of the circuit
and the black test lead to the negative side of
the circuit.
· Read the voltage on the display.
