Tip
Set the current range based on the maximum load current expected to ow during the measurement period.
(Consult the operating status,load rating,breaker rating,and other data to make this determination.)
If the range is too low,the instrument will experience an overrange event during measurement. The error component increases if the
range is too high. Current cannot be measured accurately in any of the above cases.
Refer to Sections 4.7 and 4.8 on the Instruction Manual.
