Different measurement accessories enlarge the field of application or add new
functions to your multimeter.
Measurements of DC currents with shunts
With 100mV test shunts, the C.A 406 allows the measurement of DC currents
up to 100A DC.
Use the 50µA – 100mV DC range
Connect the C.A 406 as shown in the diagram.
Read on the 100 scale.
10A Shunt: reading x 0.1
100A Shunt: reading x 1
NB: There is no current limit as long as the shunts used have a voltage drop of
100mV at the terminals.
