CAUTION (Application and removal of the Clamp-on meter) 

For  non-invasive  current  measurements,  press  the  jaw  trigger  and  clamp  the  jaws 
around conductor(s) of only one single pole of a circuit for load current measurement. 
Make sure the jaws are completely closed, or else it will introduce measurement errors. 
Enclosing  conductor(s)  of  more  than  one  pole  of  a  circuit  may  result  in  differential 
current (like identifying leakage current) measurement. Locate the conductor(s) at the 
Jaws  center  as  much  as  possible  to  get  the  best  measuring  accuracy.  For  removal, 
press the jaw trigger and remove the jaws from the conductor(s). 

 

Adjacent  current-carrying  devices  such  as  transformers,  motors  and  conductor  wires 
will affect measurement accuracy. Keep the jaws away from them as much as possible 
to minimize influence.

Note 

When  using  Diode  test  function,  normal  forward  voltage  drop  (forward  biased)  for  a 
good silicon diode is between 0.400V to 0.900V. A reading higher than that indicates a 
leaky  diode  (defective).  A  zero  reading  indicates  a  shorted  diode  (defective).  An  OL 
indicates  an  open  diode  (defective).  Reverse  the  test  leads  connections  (reverse 
biased) across the diode. The digital display shows OL if the diode is good. Any other 
readings indicate the diode is resistive or shorted (defective). 

 

CAUTION 

1.  Using  Resistance,  Continuity,  Diode  or  Capacitance  function  in  a  live  circuit  will 
produce  false  results  and  may  damage  the  meter.  In  many  cases  the  suspected 
component(s)  must  be  disconnected  from  the  circuit  to  obtain  an  accurate 
measurement reading. 
 
2.  When  using  Capacitance  function,  discharge  capacitor(s)  before  making  any 
measurements.  Large  value  capacitors  should  be  discharged  through  an  appropriate 
resistance load
