I think it will be best to use the insulators.Thanks for the update. Yes, you need the insulators. I was mistaken as far as the datasheet goes. I found pictures of other transistors with the same package (TO-247) and they are not insulated on the back either.
Quote from: Tassieviking on February 26, 2024, 10:31:55 AMI have seen multimeters that physically block the holes when you turn the knob so it is only possible to use the volt probe when volt is selectedI think if you forget you were in current mode, you will likely to forget to turn the knob as well. So then you would still do damage with the probes, which are acting as a straight piece of wire in current ranges.
