2.You will compare this to other active measurements to determine the source of the fault.

3. One of the properties of

 

moisture in a circuit is that

 

the current from the tester

 

can “dry out” the moisture.

 

The display will first show

 

a lower resistance, then

 

after one or two minutes the

 

resistance will increase to a

Initial Reading

higher reading.
