I am currently testing a triac, I'm getting readings in megaohms across M1 and M2 , is that close enough to no reading or open?
I am getting readings around 50 ohm with floating gate pin. Mine obviously is damaged.
You should test it with the diode option not the ohms.
hai andres.. What is the actual reading (ohm) for the triac after test. If still inbgood condition. Tq
I observed that one of the pins should conduct with the tab. If none conducts, you have a broken triac.
Very interesting article on how to test a TRIAC
I have some new Triacs. Pin1, 2, 3 are A1,A2,G.
50 Ohm is between A1 and G.
