GSafety Information
To ensure safe operation and service of the meter,
follow these instructions. Failure to observe warnings can
result in severe injury or death.
QAvoid working alone so assistance can be rendered.
QTo enhance safety, test leads should be disconnected from
instrument when not in use
QDo not use test leads or the clamp meter if they
look damaged
QDo not use the clamp meter if the tester is not operating
properly or if it is wet.
QUse the clamp meter only as specified in the instruction
card or the protection provided by the clamp meter may be
impaired.
QSpecial precautions are necessary when operating in
situations where exposed live parts at dangerous voltages may
be encountered. Personal protective equipment (not supplied
with the instrument) should be used.
QThe test leads should be disconnected from the instrument
when making a current measurement.
QUse caution with voltages above 30 V AC RMS, or 60 V DC.
These voltages pose a shock hazard.

Zero
Using the Relative mode (REL), a stable value can be stored, the instrument
zeroed at that point, and then any variation from that value is displayed as
a direct measurement relative to the stable value.
2. Make a measurement and then press the ZERO button.
REL: Meter stores the measured value after pressing the
ZERO button.
3. REL (flashing): The meter saves the offset value. Present
value is displayed.
1. Normal: Press and hold ZERO for > 2 seconds to return
to normal operation and cancel the offset value.

AC Conversion Type:
AC Conversions are ac-coupled, true rms responding, calibrated to the rms
value of a sine wave input. Accuracies are given for sine wave at full scale
and non-sine wave below half scale. For non-sine wave add the following
Crest Factor corrections:
For Crest Factor of 1.4 to 2.0, add 1.0% to accuracy.
For Crest Factor of 2.0 to 2.5, add 2.5% to accuracy.
For Crest Factor of 2.5 to 3.0, add 4.0% to accuracy.
