User Manual

DESCRIPTION

The MN113 (Catalog #2114.99) is a high accuracy voltage output current probe for tight areas such as
crowded wiring. Extends DMM AC measurements to 10A
jack.

WARNING

These safety warnings are provided to ensure the safety of personnel and proper operation of the
instrument.

• Read the instruction manual completely and follow all the safety information before attempting to
use or service this instrument.

• Use caution on any circuit: Potentially high voltages and currents may be present and may pose a
shock hazard.

• Read the Safety Specifications section prior to using the current probe. Never exceed the
maximum voltage ratings given.

• Safety is the responsibility of the operator.

• ALWAYS connect the current probe to the display device before clamping the probe onto the
sample being tested.

• ALWAYS inspect the instrument, probe, probe cable, and output terminals prior to use. Replace
any defective parts immediately.

• NEVER use the current probe on electrical conductors rated above 600V in overvoltage. Use
extreme caution when clamping around bare conductors or bus bars.

INTERNATIONAL ELECTRICAL SYMBOLS

This symbol signifies that the current probe is protected by double or reinforced insulation.
Use only specified replacement parts when servicing the instrument.

This symbol signifies CAUTION! and requests that the user refer to the user manual before
using the instrument.

RECEIVING YOUR SHIPMENT
