Hi guys

Probably a silly question but my voltmeter failed on me earlier and wondering what or if any of you know of the set up of the scope to text parasitic draw test in milli amps with a labscope. I currently have the Snap on Vantage Legend lab scope


Hope to hear from you

You can:

1) Use an amp clamp around a battery cable.
2) Measure the voltage drop across a resistor placed in series with the battery cable.
3) Measure the voltage drop across fuses.
