Power on/off button the instrument will only turn on if this button is pressed, held and then released when the display responds. The instrument will not turn on if the button is released before the display responds, or if the button is held down for too long. This is a safety feature to prevent the...

The guard terminal is at the same potential as the negative terminal. Since the leakage resistance is effectively in parallel with the resistance to be measured, the use of the guard causes the current flowing through surface leakage to be diverted from the measuring circuit. The instrument therefor...

8 instrument will not perform a test. The high voltage warning indicators flash, and the beeper sounds, to warn of the hazard until the external voltage becomes less than 50 v. When testing, the voltage displayed is the voltage present at the test terminals of the instrument. If the test voltage is ...
