 I tested it with this circuit. 
 
 My DVM shows the correct current flow - 1.48 mA. The PPK2 shows 40 micro Amps. 
 Note that the battery pack is 4 new Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries - 7.0 Volts.

Make sure to enable the measurement with the slider in the top left corner of the GUI. If it works I would check linearity to make sure there weren&amp;#39;t any side effects and for the future use it inside the specification (you can find this in the documentation for the kit, &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/ppk_power_supply_specs.html)."&gt;docs.nordicsemi.com/.../ppk_power_supply_specs.html).&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: PPK2 FAILURE</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/497621?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 09 Aug 2024 12:13:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a0816a0f-6297-45dd-8978-bbdb804cbc96</guid><dc:creator>KentOverton</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;OK then.
