Hi all,
I want to measure a capacitor to prove it is all ok. It's stand alone, so not connected to anything else.
I know I can set a DMM up to measure capacitance and then just do it that way.
I.e) my cap is 0.1uF so put DMM across it and ready somewhere in that region.
Question is if my DMM can't measure capacitance, what reading would I get if I measure resistance across the capacitor?
