2. To avoid electrical shock hazards and/or damage to the meter:
- Do not exceed the voltage ratings for the meter. Use caution when measuring voltage.
- Do not use during electrical storms. AC power sources with inductive loads or electrical storms may
- Do not use during electrical storms. AC power sources with inductive loads or electrical storms may
result in high voltage. High energy transients can damage meter and present a dangerous shock hazard.
- Turn off power to the circuit or device being measured before taking resistance and capacitance
measurements. Fully discharge all capacitors before measuring.
3. Ensure meter is in proper working order before using. Visually inspect meter for damage. Performing a
continuity check can verify proper operation. If the meter reading goes from overload to zero, this
typically means the meter is in proper working order.

disconnect the hot lead first, then the common lead.
8. Disconnect the meter from the circuit before turning off any indicator, including motors, transformers and
solenoids.
