Hello everyone,
Let me start by saying I'm a long time lurker and joined today because I have a specific question.
I've seen some videos where folks add a fuse to the DT830 series multimeters which have the pads for the physical fuse but don't come with one pre-installed.
Here is one such video:
In each one, they cut a trace which connects (continuity) the pads for the fuse but on mine I cannot see such trace.
So my questions are:
Can anyone see where I would cut to do the same?
Does it matter if the pads are continuous?
If I do this, will it provide better protection?
I'm not a complete n00b and own other meters such as Fluke 25, 87 III, etc. and simply bought this cheapo as a backup and novelty item.
Any constructive feedback will he greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
