User manual

Proceed as follows to measure alternating currents up to max. 60 A:

- Switch the DMM on and select “A ” mode. “A” and

“DC” will be displayed.

- Press “SELECT” to switch to AC mode. “AC” and “TRMS”

appear on the display. Press the “SELECT” button again

to switch back to DC mode.

- The display is automatically set to zero when the current

clamp is closed in the alternating current measurement

range. The rotary control (T) has no function here. It may

bethatexternalinuences(e.g.astrongmagneticeld

in the vicinity) prevent a precise zero position from be-

ing reached. In this case, the offset error remains linear

throughout the measurement range and can be subtract-

ed from the measurement. This will not impair the meas-

urement.

- Press the opening lever (W) to open the current clamp.

- Surround the conductor that you want to measure and

close the current clamp. Position the conductor in the

middle between the two position symbols on the clamp.

- The measured alternating current is indicated on the dis-

play.

- After measuring, remove the clamp transformer from the measured object and switch both devices off.

i) Contacted current measurement up to 600 mA

Never exceed the maximum permitted input values. Do not touch any circuits or circuit compo-

nents if the circuit has voltages higher than 33 V ACrms or 70 V DC. Danger of death!

The voltage in the measured circuit must not exceed 600 V.

Always start contacted current measurement with the highest measurement range and switch

down to lower ranges if necessary. Before connecting the multimeter and before changing the

measurement range, always de-energise the circuit. All current measurement ranges are provided

with fuses and thus protected against overload.

Never measure currents above 600 mA in the mA/µA range as this will cause the PTC protection

elements to trip.

The µA/mA measurement input has a self-resetting PTC fuse, which means that you do not need to

replace the fuse in the event of an overload.
