PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
■ Make sure that the conductor is correctly aligned in relation
to the markers and that the clamp is properly closed.
■ This clamp can be used in category-III installations with
voltages of less than 600 V in relation to the earth.
■ Category III meets the severe reliability and availability
requirements corresponding to constant use on fixed
industrial installations (cf. IEC 664-1).
■ Do not use the clamp for currents greater than 1,000 A.
Limit the measurement time for currents between 700 A
and 1,000 A.
■ Make sure that the switch and, if necessary, the leads are
positioned correctly before making any measurements.
■ Always disconnect the leads from the clamp when
measuring the current.
■ Always disconnect the clamp from all sources of electricity
before changing the battery.
■ Do not carry out any resistance measurements, continuity
tests or diode tests on a live circuit.
■ Set the switch to OFF when you are not using the clamp.
