.... measuring very small rms values is
tough. One source (URL given below) indicates the meter can give an
internal noise reading of several digits if you are trying to measure an RMS
level that is 1% of the range you have selected. This might be some of what
people are seeing when they torch resistors.
Here is the URL for a site that discusses some of this. Perhaps you will
find it helpful: http://www.tmworld.com/articles/TME/08_1999_RMS.htm
