Make sure that the test leads are disconnected from the meter’s terminals before
making current measurements with the clamp jaw.
WARNING:
For safety, use the rubber input terminal cover when measuring current using the
Clamp.
1.
Set the Function switch to
2000A
position.
2. Press
the

key to select AC or DC current
3.
For DC current measurements, push & hold
the
DCA ZERO
button until the reading
indicates zero.
4.
Press the trigger to open jaw. Fully enclose

button.
6.
Read the measured value from the LCD

REL
button is used, the
clamp meter will be placed in the manual range mode.
Current Measurements using the Test Leads, DC/AC
1.
Set the Function switch to the
mA
or
µA
position.
2. Press
the
FUNC
key to select AC or DC.
3.
Connect the black test lead to the
COM
terminal and the red test
lead to the
mA µA
input jack.
4.
Break the circuit under test (put the meter in series with circuit
under test) refer to diagram.
5.
Read the measured value from the LCD display.
NOTE:
The maximum reading for direct input current is 240mA AC/DC.
