Introduction
200B is a cost-effective AC clamp meter. Very small, easy to use, suitable for daily work.
Safety Information
A\ AWarnings: Read First
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, please obey the following instructions:
« Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by the Meter might be
impaired
« Avoid working alone so assistance can be rendered.
« Never measure AC current while the test leads are inserted into the input sockets.
+ Do not use the Meter in wet or dirty environments.
« Inspect the test leads before use. Do not use them if insulation is damaged or metal is exposed.
« Check the test leads for continuity. Replace damaged test leads before using.
« Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus bars. Contact with the conductor
could result in electric shock.

+ Do not hold the Meter anywhere beyond the tactile barrier.
+ When measuring current, center the conductor in the clamp.
+ Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the terminals or
between any terminal and earth ground
« Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case
« Never operate the Meter with the back cover removed or the case open.
« Never remove the back cover or open the case of an instrument without first removing the test
leads or the jaws from a live conductor.
+ Use caution when working with voltages above 30 V ac RMS, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. These
voltages pose a shock hazard.
+ Do not attempt to measure any voltage that might exceed the maximum range of the
Meter- 600 V RMS.
« Do not operate the Meter around explosive gas, vapor or dust.
« When using probes, keep fingers behind the finger guards.
« When making electrical connections, connect the common test lead before connecting the live
testlead; when disconnecting, disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting the common test lead
« Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance,
continuity, or diodes
« Check the operation of the meter at a known source before and after use.

Function Buttons
w MAX J‘ Press the “MAX” button to display the maximum value. Press and hold the buttor(
for more than 2 seconds to exit “MAX" mode.
HOLD: The HOLD function holds the currently displayed measured value on the
display so that it can be read or logged in peace. Press this button to turn on or
off data hold.
Make sure that the function is deactivated at the start of the test, otherwise
an incorrect measurement result will be simulated!
Backlight: Pres this button to turn on or off the backlight.
~ Press the "FUNC." key to switch the respective secondary function between the
different measurements for the applications accessible via the function switch
such as between AC and DC.

Operating Instructions
Insert and replace batteries
Replace the batteries immediately when the symbol {3
appears in the display. Disconnect the meter from the power
source. Remove the test leads from the measuring device,
loosen the screws on the back and remove the lower half
of the housing, replace the old batteries and screw the
cover back on.
AAttention
«Please use the same type of batteries, do not use substandard batteries
«In order to ensure safe operation and maintenance of the instrument, please take out the battery
when notin use for a long time, in order to prevent damage to the product caused by battery leakage..
Turn on/off the meter
The device is switched on when the rotary switch (3) is set to a measuring function.
When the rotary switch s set to OFF, the measuring device is switched off.

Automatic shutdown
No operation in 15 minutes, the clamp meter beeps 3 times. Without further operation, the clamp
meter beeps again and switches off automatically.
Press any key to restore the clamp meter to operating status. The symbol () appears on the display.
To deactivate the automatic switch-off, hold down the "FUNC." key for more than 2 seconds and
switch on the clamp meter at the same time. The symbol ( disappears. Restart after switching
off the meter, the automatic switch-off can be restored.
Auto-ranging
The meter automatically selects the measuring range that is best suited for the measurement
performed. The measuring unit and resolution are adjusted at the same time.
Connecting Test Leads
Do not test if leads are improperly seated. Results could neogRect
cause intermittent display readings. To ensure proper
connection, firmly press leads into the jack completely. CORRECT

Measurement operation
AC current measurement
The current is measured via the current clamp (1). The sensors in the current clamp detect the
magnetic field created by current-carrying conductors. You can take measurements on insulated
and not insulated conductors.
The test leads should be disconnected from the measuring device when measuring current.
Proceed as follows to measure the current
1) Estimate the current range (2&, 20Kor 200%) and turn the knob to 2&, 20& or 200&
2) Press the clamp release lever and open the clamp.
3) Grasp the individual current conductor to be measured and close the current clamp again.
The measured conductor must be placed in the center of the clamp, otherwise additional errors
will occur.
4) The measured current is shown on the display. If current > 3A, the orange display lights up.

A Attention
>
>
v
Do not use the current clamp to surround more than one conductor.
If the supply and return conductors (e.g. L and N) are measured, the currents will cancel
each other out and no measurement will be displayed. The cables of household
appliances usually contain L and N conductors. A cable separator is required to measure
with the current probe
If several supply conductors are measured, the currents add up.
Center the conductor through the current clamp (above the markings)
Hold your fingers behind the tactile barrier.

AC/DC voltage measurement
AVoltage above 600 V cannot be measured! When measuring high voltage, pay special attention to
safety to avoid electric shock or injury.
1) Turn the knob to%(DC Voltage) or¥ (AC Voltage)
2) Plug the black test lead into the COM socket and the red test lead into the INPUT socket.
3) Then bring the test probes into contact with the points to be measured.
4)Read the result on the display. If the voltage is> 80 V. the orange display lights up.
AAttention
* The voltage above 600V can't be measured;
otherwise the instrument may be damaged.
« Pay special attention to safety when measuring
high voltage to avoid electric shock or personal injury.
Test the known voltage with the meter before use,
confirm the function is intact.

diode being tested
. Read forward bias voltage value on the LCD.
If the polarity of the test leads is the reverse
of the diode polarity, the LCD reading shows " OL".
This can be used for distinguishing the anode side
and cathode side of a diode.

Capacitance measurement
1) Turn the knob tod¢.
2) Insert the red probe in INPUT socket, insert the black probe in COM socket.
3) Contact the probe to the capacitance.
4) Read the measurement result on the screen.
AAttention
When measuring capacitance on the line, disconnect the power supply and discharge all the
high-voltage capacitors. Otherwise, the instrument may be damaged and may be struck by electric
shocks.
