Measurement
The individual measuring functions are explained in the following.
7.1
Current measurement (current clamp)
To make a current measurement with the current clamp, first select the right function with the
rotary switch. Now open the current clamp by pressing the lever at the side of the meter. Now
clamp the cable to be tested with the current clamp. After a short time, you can view the measured
value.
Note:
Only one cable can be measured at a time. Measuring several cables would cause incorrect
readings. To obtain the most accurate measurement result possible, the cable must be positioned
as centrally as possible.
Important:
During the current measurement, the test leads must not be connected to the meter.
