Measuring with BENNING MM 3
8.1 Measurement preparation
The BENNING MM 3 must be used and stored only at the indicated storage and
working temperatures, avoid exposure to continuous sunlight.
-
Check the rated voltage and current indications on the test leads. The
safety test leads provided with the BENNING MM 3 correspond specifically
to the rated voltage and current of the BENNING MM 3.
-
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation. If the insulation is damaged,
the test leads should be discarded immediately.
-
Check test lead continuity. If the conductor in the test lead is damaged, the
leads should be discarded immediately.
-
Remove test leads from circuit to be measured before turning the rotary
switch to select another function.
-
If the BENNING MM 3 is used near strong noise generating sources, the
display may become unstable and measurement errors may arise.
8.2 Voltage and current measurement
To avoid electrical shock, observe the maximum rated voltage
to earth ground!
The maximum rated voltage that should be applied between any of the following
terminals of the BENNING MM 3 and earth ground is 600 V.
-
COM terminal
-
Input terminal for V, Ω, and Hz
-
Input terminal for µA/ mA range
-
Input terminal for 20 A range
Electrical hazard! Maximum permissible circuit voltage for
current measurement is 500 V! If a safety fuse blows at a
voltage above 500 V the BENNING MM 3 could be damaged.
A damaged tester presents an electrical shock hazard to the
user!
