I go over how to setup the digital multi meter to test the 240v outlet and how to test the outlet itself as well as some common issues you may encounter with your outlet. I installed this 3 prong 50 amp 240v outlet to run my welder off of a couple years ago. Initially the outlet was a 4 prong dryer plug which I changed to this 3 prong outlet. That video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PANFpoUy2w
