Steps to measure capacitance with digital multimeter

Oct 06, 2022

Taking the measurement of 0.01μF (103) capacitance as an example, the measurement process is as follows:


Step 1: Rotate to the capacitance range of 20μF.


Step 2: Discharge the capacitor with a test lead.


Step 3: Insert the capacitor into the multimeter capacitor socket, turn on the power switch of the multimeter, and observe the reading. The measured capacitance is: 0.095μF.


Step 4: Rotate to the capacitance range of 2μF, and the measured capacitance is: 0.103μF.


Step 5: Rotate to the capacitance range of 200nF, and the measured capacitance is: 105 nF = 0.105μF.


Step 6: Rotate to the capacitance range of 20nF, the measured capacitance is displayed as "1.", indicating that the range is not enough.
