Best to use a clamp type amp meter, if you dont have one use any amp meter rated at least 50% higher than the short circuit current in the specs of the
panel.
I am also assuming you dont have a regulator on the
panel....have you?
if not cover the
panel to block all the light, connect the output leads of the
panel to the probes on the multimeter securely as in with screw type connectors and set the meter up to read the highest current it can.
Get someone to uncover the
panel and expose it to good sun, as soon as you get a good reading cover the
panel again, no more than one to two seconds.
If your not confident get someone thats familiar with meters to assist you.
