Hi
I'm still puzzled over the 600V reading. My guess
is that there is a problem in the meter. As far as I know,
the inputs are usualy configured as a doubler when used
with 115V and a bridge when used for 220V. I don't
recall the circuit but I remember it was a clever trick
in that one could change it with a single jumper.
What a BBU?

I am still puzzled as to how it gets 600V without
either other large
capacitors, or a mains-frequency transformer.
Ditto.
