Electrical systems & I are not friends, so I have little experience with this. I don't know how to interpret these readings or how the range changes what I'm seeing. Searching has turned up lots of stuff that seems to assume that you know this. TIA for the advice.
Both of these readings were taken with the circuit in the same state. (I thought I had one when set to the 400A range). |
