Introduction
DearCustomer,
With the Digital Multimeter ME-42 you have acquired a new-gene-
ration measuring instrument built to the latest technological Stan-
dards.
Construction complies with DIN VDE 0411, part 1 for measu-.
ring instruments
=
EN 61010-I. In addition it has been
EMC-te-
sted (for domestic use) and fulfils the requirements of the ap-
plicable national and European directives. Conformance to the-
se has been proven; the relevant documents are lodged with
the manufacturer.
To maintain this condition and to guarantee safe operation, the
user must observe these operating instructions without fail!

Intended use of the
Digital Multimeter ME-42:
DC voltage measurement up to a maximum of 1000 VDC
AC voltage measurements up to 750 VAC rms max
Measurement of DC and AC current up to max. 20 A, for a max. of
30 s (protected)
Resistance measurement up to 40 MOhm max
Continuity testing and diode testing.
Measurements must not be performed under unfavourable ambient
conditions. Unfavourable ambient conditions include:
l
wetness or excessive humidity,
l
dust and combustible gases, fumes or solvents,
l
thunderstorms or storm conditions producing strong electrosta-
tic fields, etc.
.-
Any use other than as described above can lead to damage to the
instrument; in addition this is accompanied by dangers such as
short circuit, fire, electric shock, etc. No part of the product must
be modified or converted! The safety instructions are to be follo-
wed without fail !

different operations (voltage measurement, current measure-
ment, etc.).
20 A input
This measuring input is protected with a 20 A fuse and is suita-
ble for DC and AC currents up to max. 20 A (max. 30 s
durati-
on with 15 minute pause between measurements).
mA input

nal during resistance measurement, diode test or temperature
measurement).
Attention!
Observe the maximum input levels.

Safety information
Damage resulting from non-observance of this manual renders void
any claim under the guarantee! We accept no responsibility for
consequential damage.
We accept no responsibility for damage to property or injury to per-
sons caused by improper operation or failure to

technically-safe condition. To maintain this condition and to en-
sure safe operation, it is essential for the user to observe the sa-

Current measurements may only be carried out in circuits which

are themselves fused at 16 A or in which no voltage greater than
250 VDCNACrmsor powers greater than 4000 VA can arise. The
measuring instrument must not be used in installations of Over-
voltage Category III in accordance with IEC 664. The measuring
instrument and instrument leads are not protected against arcing
(IEC 101 o-2-031, Section 13 I Of
.I
01).

Measuring instruments and accessories are not toys and do not
belong in the hands of children!

In commercial facilities the accident-prevention regulations of
the Industrial Employers’ Liability Association for electrical sys-
tems and equipment must be observed.
In schools, training facilities, hobby and self-help workshops, the
handling of measuring instruments must be supervised responsi-
bly by trained personnel.
When effecting replacements, it must be ensured that only fuses
of the specified type and specified current rating are used. The
use of a repaired fuse or the bridging of the fuse holder is not
permitted. To change the fuses, disconnect the measuring in-
strument from the circuit being measured and switch it off. Re-
move all connected leads and test probes. Select a suitable
crosspoint screwdriver and carefully open the housing. Remove
the defective fuse(s) and replace with identical type(s) and nomi-
nal current ratings.

Having successfully changed the fuse(s), carefully close and
screw the case up once more, in reverse order.
Only put the measuring instrument into operation once again
when the case is securely closed and screwed up.
Take particular care when dealing with voltages greater than 25
VAC or greater than 35 VDC. Even at these voltages it is possible
to receive a lethal electric shock if electrical conductors are tou-
ched.
Therefore, first of all switch off the voltage source to be mea-
sured, connect the measuring instrument to the voltage source,
set the required measurement range on the unit and only then
switch on the voltage source.
After completing measurements, switch off the voltage source
and remove the test leads from the voltage source connecting
points.

Before any voltage measurement, ensure that the measuring
instrument is not set to the current measuring range.
l
Before every change in measuring range, the test leads or adap-
ter must be removed from the object being measured.
l
Before each measurement check your measuring instrument and
test leads for damage.
l
For measurements, only use the test leads which are supplied
with the measuring instrument. Others should not be used.
l
To avoid electric shock, care should be taken during measure-
ment not to touch the test probes and the connections (points of
measurement), not even indirectly.
l The voltage between a chosen 4 mm socket of the unit and
ground may not exceed 500
VDCNAC
rms.
l
The measuring instrument should not be used in areas or under
adverse environmental conditions in which inflammable gas, fu-
mes or dust are present or can occur. For your own safety it is
essential to avoid the measuring instrument or its wiring beco-
ming damp or wet. Avoid operation in the immediate vicinity of:
a) strong magnetic fields (loudspeakers, magnets)
b) electromagnetic fields (transformers, motors, coils, relays,
contactors,
electromagnets,etc..)
c) electrostatic fields (charges/discharges)
d) transmission aerials or HF generators
l
Do not use the multimeter shortly before, during, or shortly after
a thunderstorm (lightning strike!
/
high energy overvoltages! En-
sure without fail that the hands, shoes, clothing, floor and the
measuring instrument and its test leads, switches and compo-
nents, etc. are dry.
l
If it can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible,
then the unit must be switched off and protected against unin-
tentional operation. It can be assumed that safe operation is no
