Hi everybody on the forum .
I was recently given a analog MEGohmeter , and the selector gives different choices for resistance measurement , but i was surprised by the high test voltages on the unit going from 500 volts to 1 kv .
I mean how can a unit that works with 4 * 1.5 v batteries deliver such high test voltages ??
Am asking this because am troubleshooting it and i saw a tiny transformer on it , i would like to know if it is the one that transforms the batteries voltage by any chance to the test voltages ???
