To avoid blowing the current input fuse or possibly damaging
the Meter:
Current measurements between 400 mA and 10 A should be
measured using only the 10 A and LO input connectors.
BEFORE applying power to the circuit to be measured,
ensure the test leads are correctly connected to the Meter
inputs appropriate for the expected current.
Exceeding 440 mA on the 400 mA input connector or
exceeding 11 A on the 10 Amp connector will blow the
internal fuse.
Current measurements expecting to be between 400 mA and 10 A are made using the
Input LO and 10A input connectors as shown in Figure 4-5.
