1) Mains connection error
Remedy: Inspect mains connection.
or
2) Display in the connection pictograph: PE interrupted (x) or
underlying protective conductor bar interrupted with reference to the
keys at the test plug
Cause: voltage measuring path interrupted
Result: measurement is disabled
Note: only if appears: Measurement can nevertheless be started by
pressing the start key again.

Probe is not detected, probe not connected
Remedy: inspect probe connection

E
Clamp is not detected:
– Clamp is not connected or
– Current through clamp is too small (partial earth resistance too high) or
– Transformation ratio set incorrectly
Remedy: Check clamp connection and transformation ratio.
Check the batteries in the METRAFLEX P300 and replace
if necessary.

If you have changed the transformation ratio at the test instrument, a
message appears prompting you to change the setting at the current
clamp sensor as well.
R
E
Voltage too high at clamp input or signal distorted
The transformation ratio parameter selected at the test instrument might
not correspond to the transformation ratio at the current clamp sensor.
Remedy: Check transformation ratio or setup.

Battery voltage is less than or equal to 8 V.
Reliable measurement is no longer possible.
Storage of measured values to memory is disabled.
Remedy: Rechargeable batteries must be recharged, or replaced towards
the end of their service life.
