AC/DC Current Probe Model SL206 

 

- 4 - 

Definition of Measurement Categories 

CAT I:

  For measurements on circuits not directly connected to the AC 

supply wall outlet such as protected secondaries, signal level, 
and limited energy circuits. 

CAT II: 

For measurements performed on circuits directly connected to 
the electrical distribution system. Examples are measurements 
on household appliances or portable tools. 

CAT III:

 For measurements performed in the building installation at the 

distribution level such as on hardwired equipment in fixed 
installation and circuit breakers. 

CAT IV: 

For measurements performed at the primary electrical supply 
(<1000V) such as on primary overcurrent protection devices, 
ripple control units, or meters. 

 
Receiving Your Shipment 

Upon receiving your shipment, make sure that the contents are 
consistent with the packing list. Notify your distributor of any missing 
items. If the equipment appears to be damaged, file a claim immediately 
with the carrier and notify your distributor at once, giving a detailed 
description of any damage. 
 
 

Packaging 

The AC/DC Current Probe Model SL206 (Cat. #1201.45) is shipped with 
one 9V battery (not installed) and this user manual. 
 
 

Compatibility 

The AC/DC Current Probe Model SL206 is compatible with any DMM, 
voltmeter, or other voltage-measuring instrument that has the following 
features: 

  Range and resolution capable of displaying 1mV of input. 

  Voltmeter accuracy (uncertainty) of 0.75% or better to take full 

advantage of the accuracy of the probe. 

  Minimum input impedance of 100k

 (1V/A range) or 10k

 

(10mV/A range).
