Operation
AC Current Measurements
1) Set the Function switch to the ACA range.
2) Press the jaw trigger and clamp around,
fully enclosing a single conductor.
Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the jaw.
Refer to the diagram at right for
the correct way to enclose a single conductor.
3) Read the ACA value on the LCD.
DC Current Measurements
1) Set the Function switch to the DCA range.
2) Press the ZERO key to null the meter display.
3) Press the Trigger to open the current sense Jaw.
4) Fully enclose the conductor to be measured.
Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the jaw.
5) Read the DCA value on the LCD.
Non-Contact AC Voltage Measurements
1) Touch the probe tip to the hot conductor or insert into the hot side of the electrical outlet.
2) If AC voltage is present, the detector light will illuminate.
NOTE
: The conductors in electrical cord sets are often twisted. For best results, rub the probe tip along
a length of the cord to assure placing the tip in close proximity to the live conductor.
NOTE
: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity or other sources of energy may
randomly trip the sensor. This is normal operation
Frequency Measurements
1) Set the Function switch to the Hz position.
2) Fully enclose the conductor to be measured. Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the jaw.
3) Read the Frequency value on the LCD.
Flashlight
Press and hold the top button to turn the flashlight on. Release the button to turn the flashlight off.
WARNING:
Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the Voltage Detector on a
known live circuit to verify proper operation
