1.13 Accessory AC High Voltage Probe
The 10,000 volts AC accessory probe is similar to the high voltage DC probes
with the following exceptions: The AC high voltage probe is designed to extend
the 260-8P AC voltage range. The probe can be used with the Simpson 260-8P
10-volt AC range.
NOTE: Instructions are furnished with each high voltage probe.
1.14 Amp-Clamp Model 150-2
The Simpson Amp-Clamp Model 150-2 allows AC current measurements with-
out breaking the circuit under test. The Amp-Clamp works as a transformer con-
taining a split core for accommodating the conductor which carries the current
being measured. The current-carrying conductor becomes the transformer pri-
mary and a coil in the Amp-Clamp serves as the secondary winding. The Amp-
Clamp output voltage is proportional to the current measured and can be applied
to the 260-8P as an AC voltage.
The Amp-Clamp has a range selector with six positions. Any of the following
current ranges can be used with the 260-8P: 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 or 250 amperes.
NOTE: Instructions are furnished with each Amp-Clamp.
