1. General instructions
This digital clamp meter has been designed according
to International Electro Safety Standard IEC-61010
concerning safety requirements for electronic
measuring instruments and hand-held current clamps;
meeting the requirements for 600CAT.II of IEC-61010
and grade 2 for pollution.
Before using this meter, please read carefully this
user's manual and respect the related safety precautions.
2.1 Precautions for use
• Before measurement, warm up for at least 30 seconds.
• Don’t use the meter or lead if they look damaged.
• To meet the safety requirements, only use the test
leads supplied with the meter. If the test lead should
be replaced, a new one with the same model or same
electric specification should be adopted.
• If the meter is placed in a relatively noisy environment,
meter readings will become unstable, even with big
errors.
• Before changing the measuring range, you must
ensure that the test lead is not connected to any
circuit to be tested.
• When you can’t determine the size range of signal to
be tested, please switch the measuring range to the
maximum position.
• When you use the meter to measure, you should make
the test lead and the rotary switch in the correct position.
• When use the test lead to measure, you should keep
the fingers behind the protection ring.

•
RMS, please operate carefully to prevent electric shock.
• Do not exceed the input limit specified in each
measuring range to prevent the meter to be damaged.
• When measuring current, the test lead can not be
inserted into the input socket.
• When you hold the clamp meter to measure, you
should keep the fingers behind protection ring of
meter body.
• Before on-line resistance measurement, you should
turn off the power for all circuits and discharge all
capacitors.
• Change the battery as early as possible when the“ ”
symbol appears to avoid incorrect reading.
When the voltage to be tested exceeds 60VDC or 30VAC

5. Operating Instructions
5.1 AC Current (ACA) measurement
• Turn the rotary switch to position A in the desired range.
• Pull the trigger, clamp the wire to be measured
(one line) in the center of transformer jaws (shown as
below figure) and make transformer jaws fully closed.
• The measurement current value can be read through
the LCD display.
• If only “OL”shows on the display, it means overload,
and a higher measuring range should be selected
immediately.

6. Meter Maintenance
6.1 Maintenance
Before opening the back cover, you should
power off and make sure that the test lead is
disconnected from the measurement circuit to
avoid electric shock.
WARNING
Use a piece of damp cloth and a small amount of
detergent to clean the meter regularly, do not use
chemical solvent to clean the meter.
6.2 Battery Replacement
Before opening the battery cover, power off and
make certain that all test leads are
disconnected from the testing circuits to avoid
electric shock.
WARNING
Follow these steps to replace the battery:
• When the battery voltage is lower than the normal
operating voltage, low battery symbol“ ”will display
on the LCD display. At this moment, the battery should
be replaced.
• Press the power switch to cut off the meter power supply.
• Unscrew the screws on the battery cover, remove the
old battery and replace it with a new AAA 1.5V battery.
• Install the bottom shell back and tighten the screws.
