Usage Notes
Precautions during measurement
DANGER
• Do not measure around a bare conductor.
Doing so may result in short-circuit or electric
shock. Take measurements at a location on
an insulated wire where there is sufficient
insulation for the circuit voltage.
• Refer to the derating characteristics when
measuring current that includes a high-
frequency component and never measure
any current that exceeds the rated current.
Use with high frequencies or strong magnetic
fields may cause the device to become
abnormally hot, resulting in fire, equipment
damage, or burns. (See “3 Specifications”
(p. 45).)
• Observe the following to avoid electric shock
and short circuits.
• Connect the device to the 3269 or the 3272
Power Supply and waveform measurement
instrument (oscilloscope or recorder) first,
and then to the active lines to be measured.
• When the sensor is opened, do not short-
circuit the conductor being measured or other
two wires with the metal part of the tip.
