AC/DC Current Clamp Meter Transducer for Digital Multimeter Oscilloscope with BNC Type Connector

1. When measuring the AC/DC Current with the Current Clamp, a multimeter or scope can directly measure the current up to 65 A , with a frequency up to 20KHz;
2. In this method, there is no need to break a circuit or to affect the isolation to measure the current;
3. The Current Clamp is not only available for the detection or monitor of the possibly existing creepage, but for the measurement with little gap using its extended jaws;
4. However, it is necessary to turn the zero adjustment knobs on the clamp until the multimeter or scope reads zero.

10k Typical

1. The voltage of the conductor measured with the current clamp should be little than 300V DC or 240V rms AC;
2. We are forbidden to measure the conductor whose insulation has break down or wear down.

1. When connected with any multi-meter or a scope,connect the BNC connector of the clamp to a scope BNC connector;
2. Set the power switch form Off to ON position, that is to set the multimeter range to 1mV/10mA or 1mV/100mA. Then, the green LED will be lighting, indicating that the clamp is switched on;
3. when the current is not greater than 2 ampere ,please set the current clamp range to 1mV/10mA and set the multi-meter range to 200mV AC or 200 mV DC, which depends on the type of the current;
4. Before measuring the DC current, it is needed to turn the zero adjustment knobs on the clamp until the multimeter reads zero. That means pushing down the zero adjustment knobs on the clamp until the multimeter reads zero. Then let go hold of the zero adjustment knobs.When using a scope,set DC coupled mode to measure DC current;
5. Clamp the jaws around the current-carrying conductor and operate as above;

1. When the current clamp range is set to 1mV/10mA, the actual current is ten times of the measured current whose unit is mA. For example, the measured current is 10 mV and The actual current of the current-carrying conductor is 10×10=100mA;
2. When the current clamp range is set to 1mV/10mA, the actual current is ten times of the measured current whose unit is mA. For example, the measured current is 10 mV and The actual current of the current-carrying conductor is 10×10=100mA;
3. In the case of DC current, the output is positive when the current flows from the upside to the underside of the clamp;
4. In the case of DC current measurement, the current clamp can not possibly zero properly, due to the hysteresis effect. To eliminate this, open and close the jaws several times and then zero again.
