Just wondering if anyone with a General Tools CM660 has seen this before.
I was doing some inrush measurements on a AC compressor (1ph/240v/60Hz, a Copeland ZP44K5E-PFV) w/ and w/o a hard start kit. The meter has three range settings of auto/00.00/000.0
Meter was set on auto but gave a O.L. reading on test w/o kit. I was expecting above 100A because motor LRA is 135A. But the meter did not seem to auto range. With start kit I got a 35.40A reading.
Anyone experience same thing with this model?
