1.5 Optional Accessories

1.

Heavy-duty welding-type C-clamps (Figure 3) are available as optional accessories. These C-
clamps allow test lead connections to a wide variety of bushing sizes, bus bars, and
conductors that require low-resistance test-lead contacts.

2.

An optional shipping case (which holds the ATO and its cables) is also available.
