Page 11: Measurement Operation
Model UT20B: OPERATING MANUAL Measurement Operation (1) A. AC Voltage Measurement Warning To avoid harms to you or damages to the Meter from electric shock, please do not attempt to measure voltages higher than 300V rms although readings may be obtained. The AC voltage measurement positions are: 200V and 300V. - Page 12 Model UT20B: OPERATING MANUAL Measurement Operation (2) Note If the value of voltage to be measured is unknown, use the maximum measurement position (300V) and reduce the range step by step until a satisfactory reading is obtained. In each range, the Meter has an input impedance of approx. 0.5M . This loading effect can cause measurement errors in high impedance circuits.

Page 17: Diodes Test
Model UT20B: OPERATING MANUAL Measurement Operation (7) E. Diodes Test Warning To avoid damages to the Meter or to the devices under test, disconnect circuit power and discharge all the high-voltage capacitors before testing diodes. Use the diode test to check diodes, transistors, and other semiconductor devices. The diode test sends a current through the semiconductor junction, and then measures the voltage drop across the junction. - Page 18 Model UT20B: OPERATING MANUAL Measurement Operation (8) For forward voltage drop readings on any semiconductor component, place the red test lead on the component’s anode and place the black test lead on the component’s cathode. The measured value shows on the display. Note In a circuit, a good diode should still produce a forward voltage drop reading of 0.5V to 0.8V;...
