LIST OF PRODUCTS

Nearly every electrical engineer has a hand held

digital clamp meter (Tongtester). We sometimes take

them for granted, until we damage them or “burn them

out”. If you incorrectly connect your clamp meter to a

circuit, or if you have the clamp meter on wrong setting,

you damage the meter and possibly hurt yourself. You

can also get into trouble if you try to measure the voltage

across a charged capacitor.

Clamp meter users frequently burn their meters by

trying to measure current the same way as they measure

voltage. Remember, you measure voltage across a

circuit, and current through a circuit. When you use the

current input, your clamp meter becomes a low

impedance circuit element.

Even if you correctly insert your clamp meter in to the

circuit, you can still damage your meter. Don’t try to

measure current in excess of your meter’s capacity.

Check the current capacity of the Clamp meter first.

If you are measuring current in industrial

environment, to prevent excess current from flowing

through your meter, always disconnect your test leads

from the circuit under test whenever you change Clamp

meter functions. Set your meter to the correct function,

say current, and its highest range for the setting. If the

reading is small, change the range to the next lower

range till the reading can be read with the best possible

accuracy. When measuring voltage, connect the test

leads before your apply power to your circuit. To be

safe, start by setting your meter to its highest range

first.

TERMS IN THIS MANUAL

Warning : Identifies conditions and actions

that could result in serious injury

or even death to the user.

Caution : Identifies conditions and actions

that could cause damage or

malfunction in the instrument

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

expose this product to rain or moisture. The meter is

intended only for indoor use.

To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper

safety precautions when working with voltages above

60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a

potential shock hazard to the user.

Keep your hands/ fingers behind the hand/finger

barriers (of the meter and the test leads) that indicate

the limits of safe access of the hand-held part during

measurement. Inspect test leads, connectors, and

probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal

before using the instrument. If any defects are found,

replace them immediately.

This Clamp-on meter is designed to apply around or

remove from uninsulated hazardous live conductors.

But still, individual protective equipment must be used

if hazardous live parts in the installation where

measurement is to be carried out could be accessible.

CAUTION :

Disconnect the test leads from the test points before

changing meter functions.

DC Voltage and AC Voltage functions

Inputs are made through the test lead

terminals.

Note : DC 400.0mV range is designed with

1000MWhigh input impedance for least current

drain in measuring small signals, and can cope

better with most commercially available voltage

output transducers/adapters. The non-zero

display reading is normal when the meter

inputs are open circuit, which will not affect

actual measurement accuracy.

OPERATION

Inputs are made through the clamp jaws for non-

invasive ACA & DCA current measurements.

The meter will show a close to zero reading when the

inputs are shorted. Open input is actually a floating

condition, which is not a zero-volt-input condition.

Note : AC 400.0mV range selection is by RANGE

button manually, and is specified from AC 40mV &

up for Model 2754A and from AC 60mV & up for

True RMS Model 2754A-T.

ACA & DCA CURRENT CLAMP-ON FUNCTION

CAUTION

(Application and removal of the Clamp-on meter)

Press the jaw trigger and clamp the jaws around only

one single conductor of a circuit for load current

measurement. Make sure the jaws are completely

closed, or else it will introduce measurement errors.

Enclosing more than one conductor of a circuit will

result in differential current (like identifying leakage

current) measurement. Locate the conductor(s) at

the jaws center as much as possible to get the best

measuring accuracy. The jaw arrow-mark indicates

current flow direction on DCA positive readings. For

removal, press the jaw trigger and remove the jaws

from the conductor(s).

Note : In DCA measurements, hysteresis of the jaws

(after measuring high DC currents) may introduce

non-zero residual readings. Relative Zero rmode

should be used to offset the residual readings, if any,

so as to get more accurate measurements.

Adjacent current-carrying devices such as

transformers, motors and conductor wires will affect

measurement accuracy. Keep the jaws away from

them as much as possible to minimize influence.

Using Resistance, Continuity or Diode function in a

live circuit will produce false results and may damage

the instrument. In many cases the suspected

component must be disconnected from the circuit to

obtain an accurate measurement reading.

Inputs are made through the test leads terminals.

Slide-switch on defaults at W. Press SELECT

button momentarily to select Continuity function

which is convenient for checking wiring connections

and operation of switches. A continuous beep tone

indicates a complete wire.

WRESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY

FUNCTIONS

CAUTION

Inputs are made through the test leads terminals.

Slide-switch on defaults at W. Press SELECT button

momentarily 2 times to select Diode test function.

Normal forward voltage drop (forward biased) for a

good silicon diode is between 0.400V to 0.900V. A

reading higher than that indicates a leaky diode

(defective). Azero reading indicates a shorted diode

DIODE TEST FUNCTION

(Defective). An OL indicates an open diode

(defective). Reverse the test leads connections

(reverse biased) across the diode. The digital display

shows OL if the diode is good. Any other readings

indicate the diode is resistive or shorted (defective).

CAPACITANCE FUNCTION

Inputs are made through the test leads terminals.

Slide-switch on defaults at W. Press SELECT button

momentarily 3 times to select Capacitance

function. Relative zero rmode can be used to zero

out the parasitic capacitance of the leads and the

internal protection circuitry of the meter when

measuring low capacitance in the order of Pico Farad

(pF).

CAUTION

Discharge capacitors before making any

measurement. Large value capacitors should be

discharged through an appropriate resistance load.

HOLD

The Hold feature freezes the display for later viewing.

Press the HOLD button momentarily to toggle to

the Hold feature. The annunciator “ ” turns on.

MAX

The max feature compares and displays the

measured maximum value as fast as 30ms with auto-

ranging capability. It allows the meter to capture in-

rush currents in current functions. Press and hold the

MAX button for 1 second or more to toggle to the

max feature. The annunciators “MAX” and “ ”

turn on.
