Quick Start (EN) INTRODUCTION The Extech EX530A measures AC/DC Voltage, AC/DC Current, Re- sistance/Continuity, Capacitance, Frequency/Duty Cycle, Diode, and Temperature. Additional measurement features include a 4 to 20 mA process control mode, low impedance (LoZ) voltage mode, and a low pass filter (LPF) mode. This meter features a water-proof, rugged design intended for industrial use.
Function Maximum Input AC/DC Current (A) 10 A (1000 V) fast acting fuse (30 seconds maximum at 15 minute intervals) AC/DC Current (mA, µA) 800 mA (1000 V) fast acting fuse AC/DC Voltage 1000 V DC and AC RMS AC/DC Voltage (LoZ) 500 V DC and AC RMS Frequency, Resistance, Capacitance, Diode, 250 V DC and AC RMS...
CONTROL BUTTONS Long press LPF to enable/disable the low pass filter (LPF). Long press again to exit. Short press MODE to select an alternate mode for the function in use. Short press to freeze/unfreeze reading. Long press to switch the backlight on/off. Short press to switch to Manual range and to change the range.

MEASURING VOLTAGE, FREQUENCY, RESISTANCE, DIODE, CAPACITANCE Voltage, frequency, resistance, diode, and capacitance measure- ments are made with the test leads placed ‘across’ the device or circuit under test (in parallel). WARNING Risk of electrocution. High-voltage AC and DC circuits are extremely danger- ous and should be measured with great care.
MEASURING CURRENT Current measurements are made with the test leads placed in ser- ies with the circuit under test. WARNING Do not make 10 A current measurements for longer than 30 seconds. 1. Rotate the function switch to the desired current function. Use the MODE button to select AC or DC.
