Measures germanium diode reverse (leakage) current rapidly at 50 v back voltage, with no shock hazard and no danger to meter or diode even if diode is shorted or inserted incorrectly. S1 converts meter from ammeter to voltmeter for measuring test terminal voltage. R2 adjusts test voltage to desired half-scale meter reading value. S2 permits checking diode in both directions.-I. J. Levy, Reverse-Current Tester Speeds Diode Checks, Electronics, 31:1, p 88-90.
