WARNINGS
The Southwire 13090T wirelessly transmits data to the MApp™ mobile app
via BluetoothÂŽ technology allowing you to view, save, organize and share
datalogs and take measurements from a safe distance. Visit
nextgenmeters.southwiretools.com for mobile app download information.
Functions include AC/DC voltage and current, resistance, continuity,
capacitance, frequency, duty cycle, temperature, and diode test. True RMS
readings provide accurate AC measurements and a Low Z setting eliminates
false readings caused by “ghost” voltages. The 13090T also offers the
added convenience of a built-in LED flashlight. This meter is fully tested and
calibrated and, with proper use, will provide many years of reliable service.

FCC ID: 2AENI-13090T / IC: 20144-13090T
This Multimeter is designed to provide years of dependable service, if the following care
instructions are performed:
1. KEEP THE METER DRY. If it gets wet, wipe it off.
2. USE AND STORE THE METER IN NORMAL TEMPERATURES. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of the electronic parts and distort or melt plastic parts.
3. HANDLE THE METER GENTLY AND CAREFULLY. Dropping it can damage the electronic
parts or the case.
4. KEEP THE METER CLEAN. Wipe the case occasionally with a damp cloth. DO NOT use
chemicals, cleaning solvents, or detergents.
5. USE ONLY FRESH BATTERIES OF THE RECOMMENDED SIZE AND TYPE. Remove old or
weak batteries so they do not leak and damage the unit.
6. IF THE METER IS TO BE STORED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME, the batteries should
be removed to prevent damage to the unit.

Low Z is used to check for “ghost” voltage. Ghost voltages are present when
non-powered wires are in close proximity to powered wires. Capacitive coupling
makes it appear that non-powered wires are connected to a real source of
voltage. The Low Z setting places a load on the circuit, which greatly reduces
the voltage reading when connected to a ghost voltage.

2. Insert the black test lead into the
COM input jack and the red test
lead into the 10A input jack.
3. Remove power from the circuit
under test, then open up the
circuit at the point where you wish
to measure current.
4. Touch the test lead probes in series
with the circuit being measured.
5. Apply power to the circuit.
6. Read the current on the LCD display.
WARNING: Observe all safety precautions when
working on live circuits. Do not measure current on circuits
that exceed 600V. Measurements in the 10A range should
be limited to 30 seconds maximum every 15 minutes.
