Wiring the Measurement Circuit
WARNING
• When applying a current to be measured directly to the input terminals of
the instrument, disconnect the input cable of the external sensor. A voltage
might be generated by the external sensor input terminal when connected.
CAUTION
• A load current flows in the thick lines show in the diagrams; therefore, a
wire with sufficient current capacity must be used for these lines.

ground potential in order to minimize measurement error.
