Screen displays that differ from the above notation:

Hioki expresses accuracy as error limit values specified in terms
of percentages of reading.

The screen of this instrument displays characters in the fol-

lowing manner.

Symbols for Various Standards

Over-range display

Open display

Resistance measurement: When the read-
ing exceeds 1,600 

Ω

Current measurement: When the reading
exceeds 60.0 A.

This screen is displayed when the clamp
sensor is not completely closed during use
of the resistance measurement function.

Reading
(displayed 
value)

Refers to the displayed value of the measur-
ing instrument. The limit values of reading
errors are expressed in percent of reading 
(% of reading, % rdg).
