Basic Operation

Warning: If a power source of 220V is connected to the input voltage

terminal/receptacle, do not connect a110V device to the output load

terminal/receptacle.

Using Receptacles

1. Plug one end of the power cord into the input receptacle and plug the other end into

the wall outlet.

2. Plug the device to be tested into the output load receptacle. The display will show the

W, PF, V, and A for the device under test.

Note 2: W= VA, 1KW = 1KVA = 1000W = 1000VA, when PF = 1.

Warning: The input receptacle and terminal are connected in parallel (as are the

outputs). To avoid electrical shock, do not touch any metal part of the receptacle

or terminal.

Using Terminals

1.Plug one end of the power leads into the input voltage terminal (left) and connect the

other end of the test leads to the power source.

2.Plug the device power leads into the output load terminals. W, PF, V, and A will

display for the device under test.

Note 2: W=VA, 1KW = 1KVA = 1000W = 1000VA, when PF =1 at DC

Warning: The input and output receptacle and terminal are connected in

parallel, Do not touch any metal part of the receptacle or terminal to avoid

electrical shock.

Using a Current Transformer

Warning: Only personnel well trained in the principles of Current Transformers

(CT) should attempt this test connection. When connecting a CT, follow the

wiring diagrams and instructions below.

1. Connect the CT’s kterminal (entering the CT) to the power line that passes through

the CT, and connect this kterminal to the input voltage black terminal (ground).

2. Connect the other power line to the input voltage red terminal.

3. Connect the CT’s lterminal (leaving the CT) to the output load black terminal

(ground).

4. The Watt reading and Amp reading should be multiplied by the CT ratio. The V and

PF readings do not need to be multiplied by the CT ratio.

Warning: The input receptacles and terminals are connected in parallel (as

are the outputs). Do not touch any metal part of the receptacle or terminal.

PC Interface for Data Acquisition & Datalogging Features

Data Acquisition

Models 380801 and 380803 can be connected to a PC where readings can be logged in

real-time as they are taken. Transferred reading data can be viewed, plotted, statistically

analyzed, printed, saved, and imported in spreadsheet, database, word processing, and

other software programs. Instructions for Data Acquisition are included in the separate

Data Acquisition and Datalogging Manual on the software disc.

You can download a copy of the program from www.Extech.com.

Note: Due to the older version of software, this meter can only operate on Windows XP and

must use a 9-pin COM port on a Desk top PC as it requires the full +/- 10 volt RS232 signal

in order to operate. A USB adapter cannot be used with this meter.

Datalogging (Model 380803 only)

The Model 380803 has built-in memory where over one thousand readings can be stored

for later transfer to PC. Once transferred, data can be viewed, plotted, statistically

analyzed, printed, saved as a text file, and imported in spreadsheet, database, word

processing, and other software programs Instructions for Datalogging are included in the

separate Data Acquisition and Datalogging Manual.

Replacement of Batteries and 20A Fuse

Battery Replacement

When the low battery symbol is displayed on any of the

LCDs, replace the eight (8) 1.5V ‘AA’batteries.

1. Turn off the power analyzer.

2. Open the battery compartment by using a screw

driver (see diagram).

3. Replace the batteries.

4. Replace the battery compartment.

Never dispose of used batteries or rechargeable batteries in

household waste.

As consumers, users are legally required to take used

batteries to appropriate collection sites, the retail store

where the batteries were purchased, or wherever batteries

are sold.

Disposal: Do not dispose of this instrument in household waste. The user is obligated to take end-

of-life devices to a designated collection point for the disposal of electrical and electronic

equipment

20A Fuse Replacement

To replace the 20A fuse, remove the fuse cover as indicated in item (5) in the Meter

Description section earlier in this manual and replace the fuse if necessary.

Warning: Do not replace the blown fuse with a fuse rating greater than 20A.

Measurement of 3-Phase 3-Wire Power

Using One Power Analyzer

Measure WRS first (RST phases must

be correctly identified)

1. Connect the R-phase of the

power source to the black

terminal of the input voltage

2. Connect the S-phase of the

power source to the red terminal

of the input voltage

3. Plug the R-phase of the device

to be tested to the black terminal

of the output load. Do not short

the R-phase of the device to be

tested to the R-phase of the

input power source.

4. Record the reading of WRS

displayed on the ‘W’LCD.

Measure WTS secondly (RST phases

must be correctly identified)

1. Connect the T-phase of the

power source to the black

terminal of the input voltage

2. Connect S-phase of the power

source to the red terminal of the input voltage

3. Plug the T-phase of the device to be tested to the black terminal of the output

load. Do not short the T-phase of the device to be tested to the T-phase of

the input power source.

4. Record the reading of WTS displayed on the ‘W’ LCD.
