  "Measuring the power supply current you will read the power supply current 
through all
tube/s elements.  If there is a screen grid and you wish to measure all tube 
elements
separately, the screen grid meter pretty much has to be in the screen grid 
connection.
To the SG supply or to ground."


The positive terminal of the power supply connects only to the triode tube's 
plate. Therefore only plate current can flow in the PSU's negative lead and 
meter it seems to me.
