Hi All

I know that there are a few on the list using the excellent Wavetek 27XT 
multimeter.

Has anyone over-volted one yet?  I just have.  I was making a measurement 
through a divide-by-ten voltage divider - looked like the capacitor had 
discharged down to about 450V.  I then touched the probe to the divide by 
nothing, was rewarded with a sparky noise and a blank display.

No blown fuses - anyone done this before and found out what's blown?  It 
could be a pain to troubleshoot without a schematic...

Cheers

M
