5.12. MEASUREMENT OF DC, AC, AC+DC CURRENT WITH CLAMP TRANSDUCERS
CAUTION
x
Maximum measurable current in this function is 3000A AC or 1000A DC.
Do not measure currents exceeding the limits given in this manual.
x
The instrument carries out the measurement both with flexible clamp
transducer F3000U (AC only) and with other
standard
clamp transducers
in the HT family. With transducers having an Hypertac output connector,
the optional adapter NOCANBA is necessary to obtain the connection.
Fig. 34: Use of the instrument for AC/DC current measurement with clamp transducer
1. Select the position.
2. Press and hold (>2s)key
MODE/VFD
to select clamp type between the options
“
”
(standard clamp) or
“ ”
(flexible clamp F3000U).
3. Press key
MODE/VFD
to select the type of measurement
“
DC
”
,
“
AC
”
or
“
AC+DC
”
(only
for standard clamps).
4. Press key
RANGE
to select on the instrument the
same range
set on the clamp,
among the options:
1000mA, 10A, 30A, 40A, 100A, 300A, 400A, 1000A, 3000A
. This
value is shown in the top part of the display in the middle.
5. Insert the red cable into input terminal
VHz% CAP
:
and the black cable into
input terminal
COM
. For standard transducers (see § 8) with Hypertac connector, use
optional adapter NOCANBA. For information on the use of clap transducers, please
refer to the relevant user manual.
6. Insert the cable into the jaws (see Fig. 34). The display shows the value of current.
7. If the display shows the message
“
OL
”
, the maximum measurable value has been
reached.
8. To use the HOLD function, see § 4.2
9. For AC+DC measurement, see § 4.3.3. To use the internal functions, see § 4.3
10. To save the measured result, see § 4.3.4
