A Word About Safety
52'%+#."2#0'."/#4-+0)5
For your safety, we have added special markings to
the meter’s panel to remind you of the
measurement limitations.
The maximum voltage that this meter can
measure is 1000V DC or 750V AC. The
maximum current that this terminal can
measure is 400mA DC and AC.
Caution
: Be extremely careful when
making high-voltage measurements; DO
NOT TOUCH TERMINALS OR PROBE
ENDS.
Caution
: Risk of electric shock! Refer to
the complete operating instructions.
The meter is protected by double
insulation.
CAT II
This equipment is rated for
INSTALLATION CATEGORY II (3600VA
max.).
To avoid electrical shock or instrument
damage, do not connect the common input
terminal (–
COM
jack) to any source that
exceeds 500 volts with respect to earth/
ground.
+10A MAX
FUSED
The maximum current you can measure at
this jack is 10 amps DC/AC. This jack is
fuse-protected.
WARNING:
Shock
Hazard if
guard not
installed.
The sliding guard on the front of the meter
protects against electrical shock. Do not
remove the guard.

• Use extreme care while
using the meter to mea-
sure current and voltage
in commercial electrical
panels. Unlike a home
AC outlet, a commercial
electrical panel has tre-
mendous current surge
potential. This is
especially true for three-
phase industrial
electrical panels. A small
spark from one of these
panels can cause a
plasma explosion and
fire that can severely
burn you. Do not hold the
meter while using it.
• Always wear protective
leather gloves, a face
shield, and fireproof arm
and upper body
protection while using
the meter to measure
current and voltage in
commercial electrical
panels.
• If this equipment is used
in a manner not specified
by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by
the equipment may be
impaired.
• To reduce the risk of fire
or shock hazard, do not
expose this product to
rain or moisture.
• For indoor use only.
