multimeter question

Featured Replies

my meter didnt come with instructions. now i find myself testing plug wire resistance and i dont really know how to read the thing.

 

my resistance settings are 200 2000 20k 200k 2000k. are these the maximum ohms tested at each given setting?

 

for example. at 200, the meter reads infinity. at 2000, the meter reads infinity. at 20k, the meter reads 3.80. does this mean 3,800 ohms?

 

at this setting, would the meter read up to 19,999 ohms, then beyond that read infinity?

 

somewhat of a dumb question, i know, but i couldnt find a manual online for my meter... thanks , Matt.

Correct, correct and correct. That's why on the 2000 ohm range , 3.8kohms, (or 3800 ohms )is off it's scale, read infinite

This is why I love my auto-range Radioshack special! :banana:
