How are the various quantities measured? (continued)
To avoid opening a circuit, we recommend measuring the current with a current
clamp, output A or V (Ax function).
To do this, proceed as follows:
a) Activate the clamp function and, depending on the type of clamp connected,
double-press "Clamp" or use the setup/clamp menu.
b) Select the type of Measurement clamp output (V, A)
c) Define ratio A displayed on the clamp Val1/Val2 or xxxx.Xa/xxxx.Xv
(by default 1A/1V) to be incorporated (Ok to Validate, or Cancel).
d) Define the physical unit to be displayed (default: A): 3 programmable fields
The clamp function includes a precise ratio xxxx.XA/xxxx.XV or XA, making it
possible to connect a broad range of current clamps that you will find in the
CHAUVIN ARNOUX catalogue; it is however necessary to verify that the
input/output range of the clamp matches the ranges available on the multimeter.
The accuracy of this "clamp" function depends on the accuracy of the clamp and
of the range used on the multimeter.
