- 1). Plug the red or positive probe into the red voltage resistance and temperature jack of your fluke meter. Plug the black probe into the black jack of your fluke meter.
- 2). Measure DC voltage by turning the dial to the "V" that has a solid and broken line above it and touching the probes to the component that is being measured. Measure AC voltage by moving the dial to the "V" with the wavy or broken line and touching the probes to the component.
- 3). Turn the dial to the Ohm symbol to measure the resistance of the component. Touch the probes to each other to determine if the meter has been zeroed out. Use the calibration knob to zero out the meter if needed. Touch the probes of the meter to both ends of the component being monitored, and read the display of your meter to determine the resistance of the component.
- 4). Turn off the power of the circuit and turn the meter's dial to the Amps symbol to measure the current in the circuit. Place the meter in series with the circuit. Turn the power on, and read the meter's display for the current measurement.
