8) MEASUREMENT OPERATION

A. AC Current Measurement
WARNING
To avoid personal injuries or damages to the meter due an electric
shock, please remove the test leads from the meter and do not attempt
to measure signals higher than 1000A AC.
Set the rotary switch to A~ or 40A~. In the A~ range, use the RANGE key
to manual selection between the 400A and 1000A ranges.
Note
• If the current amplitude is unknown, set the higher range and then reduce
the range to get a more satisfactory reading.
• Press the trigger to open the transformer jaw and clamp only the conduc-
tor with the current to be measured.
• Wait until display stabilization to take the reading.
• For best accuracy, keep the conductor across center of the jaw.
