Instruction Manual
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
The Klein Tools CL3200 is an auto-ranging general-purpose clamp meter.
It measures AC /DC voltage, AC current, and resistance. It can also test
non-contact voltage and continuity.
• Operating Altitude: 2000 meters
• Storage Altitude: 10000 meters
• Humidity: 0% to 80% at 32°F to 95°F (0°C to 35°C)
0% to 70% at 32°F to 131°F (0°C to 55°C)
• Operating Temperature: 0°C / 32°F to 40°C / 104°F < 75% R.H.
• Storage Temperature: -20°C /-4°F to 60°C /140°F < 80% R.H.
• Accuracy Temperature: 18°C /64°F to 28°C /82°F
• Temperature Coefficient: 0.1*(specified accuracy) /°C
• Dimensions: 7.06" x 2.56" x 1.34"
• Weight: 7.9oz.
• Calibration: Accurate for one year
• Certifications: UL & cUL standard UL3111-1 Listed
• Pollution Degree: 2
• CAT Rating: CAT IV 600V, CATIII 1000V
• Accuracy: ± (% of reading + # of least significant digits)
WARNINGS
To ensure safe operation and service of the tester, follow these instructions.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.
• Before each use, verify meter operation by measuring
a known voltage or current.
• Never use the meter on a circuit with voltages that exceed the
category based rating of this meter.
• Do not use the meter during electrical storms, or in wet weather.
• Do not use the meter or test leads if they appear to be damaged.
• Ensure meter leads are fully seated, and keep fingers away from
the metal probe contacts when making measurements.
• Do not open the meter to replace batteries while the probes
are connected.
• Use caution when working with voltages above 60V DC,
or 25V AC RMS. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock,
replace batteries if a low battery indicator appears.
• Unless measuring voltage or current, shut off and lock out
power before measuring resistance or capacitance.
• Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use individual
protective equipment to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.

A. Use CATIII 1000V or CAT IV 600V rated leads or higher.
Do not attempt to measure more than 1000V DC or 750V AC
B. Keep hands below line when measuring high current levels.
C. Auto Power-Off (Apo)
• Device will power off after 30 minutes non-use.
• Turn the dial or press a button to wake.
• Holding HOLD button while turning on disables Auto Power-Off.
D. Hold /Backlight /Worklight
• Press to hold the current input on the display.
• Press again to return to live reading.
• Press for 2 seconds to enable /disable lights.
• Using lights decreases battery life.
E. F. Battery Replacement
• When indicator is displayed on the LCD, batteries must be
replaced.
• Remove the back screw and replace 2 x AAA batteries.
G. Magnetic Back
• Attach instrument to metal for hands-free use.
H. Bar Graph
• The bar graph shows an approximate analog representation
of a measurement.
• The bar graph responds much faster than the digital display.
• The scale of the bar graph is zero to the maximum reading of
the selected range.

FUNCTION INSTRUCTIONS
FEATURE DETAILS

1. AC Current: < 200A
• Center wire in guides for best accuracy.
• Opposing currents cancel (use line-splitter when necessary).
2. AC /DC Voltage: <750V AC or 1000V DC
AC /DC Voltage (Low Z): < 600V
• The tester will automatically choose AC voltage or DC voltage or
AC current based on the inputs detected.
• AUTO will be displayed when no input is detected.
• DO NOT Use low impedance (Low Z) mode at voltages greater
than 600 V.
• Use low impedance (Low Z) mode to reduce ghost voltages.
3. Resistance:
<40MΩ
• Do not measure resistance on a live circuit.
4. Continuity
• Display shows resistance.
• Buzzer sounds if less than about 40Ω.
5. Non Contact Voltage (NCV): >25V AC
• NCV works independently of other tester functions. The function
knob can be in the off position.
• Press and hold.
