ELECTRICAL 13.1 Typical Multimeter Usage Multimeter Usage The easiest and most accurate method for testing modern electri- cal components is with a digital multitester. Any good quality multi- tester will work. However, due to ease of operation and durability, Polaris recommends the Fluke Model 73 (PN 2870659), or Tektro- nix DMM155. See photo at right. This instrument will provide a dig- ital readout of the measured value of the test being performed. setting can be used for. V~ = Volts AC - measuring alternator output is produced from every coil on the stator plate when a magnet is passed by it. Ω (+) meter terminal. 3. Turn selector dial to V ~ setting. 4. Connect test leads parallel with test component. The polarity of the leads is not important. Usage S Test unregulated voltage output of a stator coil S Test regulated voltage to the lights and handwarmers V - - - = Volts DC - measuring battery voltage, volt drop, etc. Ω (+) meter terminal. 3.
