About This Product
This supply is meant for students in advanced courses where the voltage or current needs to be monitored accurately. The display can be switched between current and voltage, for either output, so readings can be taken without a separate meter. Both outputs can be used at once within the 8A limit. A snap-up handle makes it easy to carry with one hand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What can the digital display show? It shows current (I) or voltage (V) for either the ac or the dc output, chosen with the two membrane switches.
