T
o avoid damage to the Meter or to the equipment under test, disconnect circuit
power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before measuring capacitance.
Use the DC Voltage function to confirm that the capacitor is discharged.
To measure capacitance, connect the Meter as follows:
1. Insert the red test lead into the terminal and the black test lead into the COM
terminal.
2. Set the rotary switch to and press BLUE button to select nF measurement mode.
l At that time, the Meter will display a fixed value as below which is the Meter
internal fixed distributed capacitance value. To ensure accuracy when
measuring a small value of capacitance, the tested value must subtract this
value, REL mode can help on that.
UT61A, UT61B, UT61C, UT61D and UT61E: around 10nF
UT61E: around 50PF
l For more convenience, use the included multi-purpose socket for measuring
capacitor with leads or SMT capacitor. Insert the capacitor to be tested into
the corresponding "+" and "-" jack of the multi-purpose socket. This method
is more stable and correct for small value of capacitance testing.
3. Connect the test leads across with the object being measured.
The measured value shows on the display.
