Operator Maintenance
This section describes how to replace the power-line and current fuses. If you need additional information about replacing parts or repairing the multimeter, see the Service Guide.
To Replace the Power-Line Fuse
The power-line fuse is located within the multimeter’s fuse-holder assembly on the rear panel (see also page 15). See the rear panel of the multimeter for the proper fuse rating. To replace the 250 mAT fuse, order Agilent part number 2110-0817.
To Replace the Current Input Fuses
The front and rear current input terminals are protected by two series fuses. The first fuse is a 3A, 250 Vac, fast-blow fuse and is located on the rear panel. To replace this fuse, order Agilent part number 2110-0780.
With a small flatblade screwdriver, push in on the fuse cap and rotate it counterclockwise. Remove the fuse cap and fuse.
A second fuse is located inside the multimeter to provide an additional level of current protection. This fuse is a 7A, 250 Vac, high-interrupt rated fuse (Agilent part number 2110-0614). To replace this fuse, you must remove the multimeter’s case by loosening three screws. See the Service Guide for more information on disassembling the multimeter.
