Capacitor

[aleks1]

Can some one tell me if its possible to measure the mF , pF , nF of an Capacitor .. if some one knows can U post an diagram 10x

This meter allows u to measure if the capacitor in 6 ranges that are: 100pF, 1nF, 10nF,100nF,1uF, and 10uF.
So you can measure the capacitance from 1pF to 10uF!!!

You connect it to a voltmeter for the reading.

Thanks wery much for the url... But do U know how I can measyr the exact capasity...  like 12p ... ?

 

[nanop]

How precise do u want it to be?
The one above is connected to a voltmeter that's at a range of 1-10 V.
To measure the reading, select the range, and read the reading on the multimeter. Its accuracy is +/- 3pF.

Are you triyng to find the capacitance of surface mount caps?

 

[aleks1]

The Capacitance Meter that U gave me has a range from 10p to 10u ... I need something bigger .. like up to 1000 uF / 220V

Then, probaly just buy a capacitance meter. Usually, big, huge capacitors like those would be have no problems and has been tested. That's also why most over 1uF capacitors have labels on them 

What do you want to use the meter for?

I also can't access any of the www.justhandhelds.com pages.
