902 Users Manual Capacitance Turn off circuit power, then disconnect and discharge the capacitor before measuring capacitance. Turn the Meter's rotary switch to capacitance (L). If the capacitor requires more discharging, diSC is displayed while the capacitor discharges. When measuring, be sure to note the correct polarity of the capacitor. AC Current Measurement XW Warning To avoid electrical shock and injury: • Remove Test Leads before making current measurements. • Do not hold the Meter anywhere beyond the tactile barrier, see Figure 1. Turn the rotary switch to AC current (K). When measuring AC current, it is necessary that the measured wire be properly seated within the clamp jaws. The wire being measured should be centered within the jaws, below the horizontal line located on the clamp. Also note that currents moving in different directions will cancel each other out, so one wire must be measured at a time for a correct measurement (see Figure 5). 16

Capacitance
Turn off circuit power, then disconnect and discharge the
capacitor before measuring capacitance. Turn the Meter’s
rotary switch to capacitance (
L
).
If the capacitor requires more discharging,
diSC
is
displayed while the capacitor discharges. When measuring,
be sure to note the correct polarity of the capacitor.

Warning
To avoid electrical shock and injury:
Remove Test Leads before making current
measurements.
Do not hold the Meter anywhere beyond
the tactile barrier, see Figure 1.
Turn the rotary switch to AC current (
K
). When measuring
AC current, it is necessary that the measured wire be
properly seated within the clamp jaws.
The wire being
measured should be centered within the jaws, below the
horizontal line located on the clamp. Also note that currents
moving in different directions will cancel each other out, so
one wire must be measured at a time for a correct
measurement (see Figure 5).
