6 Intended use

Measures and displays electrical parameters in measurement category CAT III
(up to 600 V).
Complies with the EN 61010-1 and EN 61010-2-033 standards and all lower
categories.
The multimeter must not be used in the measuring category CAT IV.
Measures direct and alternating voltages up to 600 V
Direct measurement of direct and alternating currents up to 600 mA
Contactless measurement of direct and alternating currents up to 60 A with a
CLA60 clamp transformer
Measures frequency from 10 Hz to 10 MHz (max. 20 Vrms)
Measures capacitance up to 60 mF
Measures resistance up to 60 MΩ
Continuity tests (<10 Ω acoustic)
Diode tests
The measurement modes are selected using the rotary control. In many measure-
ment ranges, measurement range selection is automatic (except for continuity test-
ing, diode testing and current measurement ranges).
Effective (True RMS) measurements are displayed when measuring AC voltages/
currents with a frequency of up to 400 Hz. This ensures that sinusoidal and non-
sinusoidal voltage/currents are measured accurately.
Negative polarity readings are indicated with the (-) sign.
A low-impedance mode (LoZ) enables voltage measurement with reduced internal
resistance. This suppresses phantom voltages, which may occur in high-impedance
measurements. Measurement with reduced impedance is only permissible in meas-
urement circuits of up to 250 V and for up to 3 s.
The two current measurement inputs are protected against overload. The voltage in
the measurement circuit must not exceed 600 V.
The current clamp measurement input is equipped with 2x maintenance-free self-
resetting PTC fuse and one ceramic tube fuse.
