Using the wire separator and hook
Your clamp meter’s design has a wire separator and hook
feature (see Figure 2- 3) that can be used to separate
individual wires or cables for measurements from a mesh of
wires or cables.
Use the wire separator and hook to avoid touching live wires
or cables without the necessary insulation protection or
powering off the voltage or current source.
Follow the instructions below to use the wire separator and
hook feature.
