Selection
When the order of magnitude is not known, place the switch on the highest range then
lower progressively to the appropriate range.
Reading
To obtain the value of the current in A, multiply the reading on the appropriate scale by
the reading coefficient, as indicated bellow.
Warning : Limit the measurement time to 3 minutes above 2A AC.
