Steve, read and follow the directions that came with the
meter. Not the David directions.

Interesting; thank you. My meter is an Extech MN26T:

According to the operating instructions, my meter supports
"AC or DC Current
Measurement"

Yep. You've got a better meter than I, and it's up to this
task. Just
connect it as I described (be sure to use the correct
connectors on the
meter, the ones marked "10A" and "COM"), make sure it's on
the highest
current range (10A), and you're good to go.
