To measure 220 volt voltage, which gear should the multimeter be at?
1. The range conversion switch must be in the measurement gear position
When measuring voltage or current, if the size of the voltage being measured is too large to measure, it is necessary to first set it to the maximum range for testing to ensure that the pointer will not break (pointer multimeter), and then set it to the appropriate range for testing to reduce errors. However, it is not allowed to switch the range switch with power.
When measuring the voltage or DC current of a star, attention must be paid to the polarity of the instrument. The positive and negative terminals should be connected to the positive and negative terminals of the circuit. When measuring current, special attention should be paid to disconnecting the circuit and connecting the instrument in series with the circuit.
4. Regarding what you said, when measuring a voltage of 220 volts, it is necessary to first distinguish whether it is AC or DC. Based on what you said about 220 volts, it is possible that it is AC. First, turn the range switch of the multimeter to the AC indicator measurement gear that is greater than or greater than 220 volts. If it is measuring DC, turn the range switch of the multimeter to the DC indicator gear that is greater than the voltage you are measuring, and you can proceed with the measurement. (When measuring AC power, pay attention to safety and prevent electric shock)
If testing AC 220V, select AC for multimeter, 250V or above for pointer meter, and 700V or above for digital meter. If measuring DC 220V, select Dc mode, select DC 250V or above range, and select DC 700V or above range for digital meters.
The gear settings of various meters are different, but one thing is certain: set the gear greater than 220 volts. The DB98T digital display has 20, 200, and 750 volt AC gears. To measure 220 volt AC, set the 750 volt gear! The pointer MF500 meter has a 500 volt AC range.
