At its core is an LSI (Large Scale Integration) integrated circuit which uses dual slope A/D conversion for stability and accuracy. The meter can measure AC and DC Voltage and Current, Resistance, Diode voltage drop, Continuity, Capacitance, Temperature, and Frequency. Defeatable Auto Power Off, Data Hold, REL, and Min-Max Memory features enhance convenience, and Overload protection makes the meter resistant to damage from accidental overloads. The overmolded case adds ruggedness and presents a stylish appearance. WARNING This meter is NOT to be used to measure power circuitry exceeding CATEGORY III / 600 Volts (CAT III / 600 Volts). Using this meter on such circuitry could result in damage to the meter and user injury. 84-866 Triplett Model 9045 2 10/05
