Yeah, but I figured the ports on his meter might be colored as most are for dc and was trying to oversimplify it. It’s been a little while…I stopped being a sparky when I lost most my vision and the tremors kicked in. I decided I needed to stop being a human wiggy! It got to where it was like that old game “operation”, but it wasn’t a buzz and red nose.You've got it @Zzyzx , with one slight correction....it AC...alternating current.... and therefore the color of the lead doesn't matter. Pick one and put that in the tank water and place the other on a good ground.
Thanks was able to figure it out. I have minimal like 3 V in my tank.I’ll try, I can’t see detail, so we’ll see if I can screw this up. There should be two or three ports for the probes. You want one, typically black, in one that says com for common. The other, typically red, should go in one that has a V for volts. You would select V or VAC (or V with the squiggly line), and something along 200 if it’s not autoranging, typical outlet being 120vac and you want to be above that. The common lead, black would go into the ground at the receptacle. Lower, middle, half round, opening. The V volt lead would go into the water. Also, best bet is to have someone that knows how to use the meter and knows electricity do this. It’s not difficult, but better left to those that know. You can also google your particular meter for instructions.
