Introduction

ThankyouforselectingtheExtechInstrumentsTrueRMSMiniClampMeter.TheMA61

measuresACCurrentwhiletheMA63measuresACandDCCurrent.Bothmetersalsomeasure

AC/DCVoltage,Frequency,Resistance,Capacitance,Diode,andContinuity.



TheMiniClampMetersmeasurecurrentinthreeACranges600mA,6000mA,and

60A.The

MA63onlymeasuresDCcurrentintworanges6000mADCand60ADC.



TheclampmetersofferadvancedfeaturesthatincludesNCV(non‐contactvoltage)detection

andVFC(variablefrequencycontrol)thatinsertsalowpassfilterinthe measurementcircuit.



Thisdeviceisshippedfullytestedandcalibratedand,withproperuse,willprovideyearsof

reliableservice.Pleasevisitourwebsite(www.extech.com)tocheckforthelatestversionof this
