Making Measurements
AC/ DC Current measurement
The current is measured via the current clamp (2). The sensors in the current
clamp detect the magnetic field created by current-carrying conductors. You can
take measurements on insulated and not insulated conductors.
The test leads should be disconnected from the measuring device when measuring
current. Proceed as follows to measure the current:
1. Turn the rotary switch to the correct current setting (60A / 600A). "DC" appears
on the display. Press the "Z / F" button, AC is shown on the display.
2. Press the clamp release lever and open the clamp.
3. Grasp the individual current conductor to be measured and close the current
clamp again. Position the conductor in the middle between the two triangular
position symbols on the pliers.
» Do not use the current clamp to surround more than one conductor.
» If the supply and return conductors (e.g. L and N) are measured, the currents
will cancel each other out and no measurement will be displayed. The cables of
household appliances usually contain L and N conductors. A cable separator is
required to measure with the current clamp.
