3310-PR/3312-PR
Flex Current Probe
Instruction Sheet
Introduction
The Fluke 3310-PR and 3312-PR Current Probes (“the Probe”)
are ac current probes utilizing the Rogowski principle. They can
be used with the Fluke 1750 to measure current from very low
frequencies up to 15 kHz. The flexible and lightweight measuring
head allows quick and easy installation in hard to reach areas
and with large conductors.
The Probes are designed for use with the Fluke 1750 Power
Recorder.

Safety Instructions
Please read this section carefully. It will familiarize you with the
most important safety instructions for handling the Probe. In this
instruction sheet, a Warning identifies conditions and actions
that pose hazard(s) to the user. A Caution identifies conditions
and actions that may damage the Probe or the test instruments.
WX Warning
The Probe may only be used and handled by
qualified personnel. To avoid electric shock or
personal injury, follow these precautions:
•De-energize circuit during installation and
removal of probe.
•High voltages and currents may be present in
adjacent circuits under test.
•Do not use the Probe if damaged. Always
connect to display device before it is installed
around the conductor.
•Use the Probe only as specified in the operating
instructions; otherwise the safety features may
not protect you.
•Adhere to local and national safety codes.
Individual protective equipment must be used
to prevent the shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
•Before each use, inspect the Probe. Look for
cracks or missing portions of the housing or
output cable insulation. Also look for loose or
weakened components.

•Use caution when working with voltages above
60 V dc, 30 V ac rms or 42 V ac peak. Such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
•Use of this equipment is designed to 600 V
CAT IV or 1000 V CAT III standards.
600 V CAT IV and 1000 V CAT III equipment is
designed to protect against the transients in the
equipment in fixed equipment installations,
such as distribution panels, feeders and short
branch circuits, and the lighting systems in
large buildings.
•Do not use Probe in wet environments or in
locations that hazardous gases exist.
Operating Instructions
1. Connect the Probe to the 1750 via the 1750 current
input jack.
2. De-energize the circuit and place the Probe around the
conductor under test.
3. Observe and take measurements as required. Positive
output indicates that the current flow is in the direction
shown by the arrow on the Probe.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Clean the Probe periodically by wiping it with a damp cloth and
detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Do not
immerse the Probe in liquids.
