1All ac voltage ranges are specified from 1 % to 100% of range. Because inputs below 1 % of range are not specified, it is normal for this and other true-rms meters to display non-zero readings when the test leads are disconnected from a circuit or are shorted together. For volts, crest factor of ≤ 3 at 4000 counts, decreasing linearly to 1.5 at full scale. AC volts is ac-coupled.
