Frequently Asked Questions - 35879 Draper
How do I measure AC voltage with the Draper 35879?
Set the rotary switch to the V~ position. Connect the black lead to COM and red lead to V/Ω. Place probes across the circuit. Read the value on the display.
How do I replace the battery in the 35879?
Turn off the meter. Remove the screw on the back cover. Lift the cover. Replace the 9V battery with a new one. Reattach the cover and screw.
What is the accuracy of the resistance measurement?
The accuracy for resistance is ±1% + 5 digits in the 400 Ω range, and ±0.8% + 3 digits for higher ranges. Refer to manual for full specs.
Can I measure current above 10A?
No, the maximum current input is 10A for both AC and DC. Exceeding this may blow the fuse and damage the meter.
How do I perform a continuity test?
Set the rotary switch to the continuity position (usually a diode symbol with sound waves). Connect probes: the buzzer will sound if resistance is below ~30 Ω.
Is the Draper 35879 safe for measuring mains voltage?
Yes, it is rated CAT II 600V, suitable for measurements on single-phase appliances and outlets. Do not use on industrial three-phase systems.
What does the 'HOLD' button do?
Pressing HOLD freezes the current reading on the display. Press again to release. Useful for capturing measurements in hard-to-see locations.
How do I clean the meter?
Use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the terminals clean and dry.
What is the frequency range for frequency measurement?
The frequency measurement range is 0 to 10 MHz. Input voltage must be at least 1V RMS. Set the switch to Hz position.
