Inrush current measurement (DIRC)
CAUTION
Maximum measurable current in this function is 3000A AC or 1000A DC.
Do not measure currents exceeding the limits given in this manual.
The instrument carries out the measurement both with flexible clamp
transducers (optional accessories) and with other
standard
clamp
transducers in the HT family (optional accessories). For inrush currents
containing a high DC component, the use of AC/DC clamps
is
recommended
. With transducers having an Hypertac output connector,
the optional adapter NOCANBA is necessary to obtain the connection.
1. Select the position.
2. Press key
MODE/MXMNPK
to select the type of clamp transducer among the options:
“ ”
(flexible clamp transducer
–
only AC) or
“ ”
(standard clamp transducer
–
AC or DC).
3. Press the keys
/
or
and, on the instrument, select the
same range
set on the
clamp, among the options:
30A, 300A, 3000A
(AC current measurement with flexible
clamp) or:
1A, 10A, 30A, 40A, 100A, 200A, 300A, 400A, 1000A, 2000A, 3000A
for AC
or AC+DC current measurement with standard clamp.
4. For flexible clamp transducers, set the relevant full scale value (see § 4.2.10).
5. Press key
GO/HOLD
to confirm settings.

7. Connect the clamps to the system to be tested as indicated in § 5.8
8. Press key
GO/STOP
to activate the function. The instrument waits for the event to be
recognized (measured value higher than the fixed trigger threshold equal to
1%FS
clamp: e.g. 30A with FS = 3000A
) and shows symbol
