Battery replacement 

To replace the batteries, lay the device face down on a soft surface. Next, open the cover of the battery 
compartment on the back of the device. Remove the old batteries and replace them with new ones. After 
that, close the battery compartment. 

Note: Only use 1.5 V AAA batteries. 
 

Measuring  

 

Note: To avoid electric shocks, be very careful when measuring 
current-carrying conductors. 

 

Note: When using the clamp of the device, make sure there 
is only one conductor at a time inside the clamp mechanism.

AC current measurement 

 

1.  Move the rotary control switch (3) to 

the “200 A AC” position. 

 

2.  Open the current clamp by using the opening button (6) and put the conductor to be measured 

inside the clamp mechanism. 

Note: Make sure there is only one conductor at a time inside the clamp mechanism. 

 

3.  You can now see the reading on the display
