Instruction manual for current clamp LW-MZ-50
3.0 Safety Instructions
• Never measure currents above 10 A and – if possible – reduce the
measuring time if current peaks exceed 10 A.
• Never use the current clamp on non-insulated conductors with a potential
of more than 600 V to earth and with an overvoltage category higher
than III.
• The permissible environmental conditions must be observed.
• Always keep the clamp gap meticulously clean.
4.0 Warrenty
Unless expressly agreed otherwise, our warranty covers a period of
12 months from the date of invoice.
5.0 Device overview
The LW-MZ-50 current clamp is used for measuring alternating currents from
1mA to 10 A.
The current clamp can be connected to the LEAKWATCH LW-MK3plus.
The current measuring range can be set by adjusting the range switch (1 A,
and 10 A).
The current clamp is double-insulted or provided with safety insulation and
complies with international standards, in particular EN 61010-2-032 for clamp
current transformers.

Output: Cable length 2 m
Range switch 1 A and 10 A
The arrow stamped on top of the jaws indicates the direction of the
current. It is assumed that the electricity flows from the generator to the
consumer in a “positive” direction. The direction of flow in alternating
currents is only of significance for power measurements, i.e. the
simultaneous measurement of current and voltage.
