Basic Operation
Warning
: If a power source of 220V is connected to the input voltage
terminal/receptacle, do not connect a110V device to the output load
terminal/receptacle.
Using Receptacles
1. Plug one end of the power cord into the input receptacle and plug the other end into
the wall outlet.
2. Plug the device to be tested into the output load receptacle. The display will show the
W, PF, V, and A for the device under test.
Note 2: W= VA, 1KW = 1KVA = 1000W = 1000VA, when PF = 1.
Warning
: The input receptacle and terminal are connected in parallel (as are the
outputs). To avoid electrical shock, do not touch any metal part of the receptacle
or terminal.

Using Terminals
1. Plug one end of the power leads into the input voltage terminal (left) and connect the
other end of the test leads to the power source.
2. Plug the device power leads into the output load terminals. W, PF, V, and A will
display for the device under test.
Note 2: W=VA, 1KW = 1KVA = 1000W = 1000VA, when PF =1 at DC
Warning:
The input and output receptacle and terminal are connected in
parallel, Do not touch any metal part of the receptacle or terminal to avoid
electrical shock.

Using a Current Transformer
Warning
: Only personnel well trained in the principles of Current Transformers
(CT) should attempt this test connection. When connecting a CT, follow the
wiring diagrams and instructions below.
1. Connect the CT’s k terminal (entering the CT) to the power line that passes through
the CT, and connect this k terminal to the
input voltage black terminal
(ground).
2. Connect the other power line to the input voltage red terminal.
3. Connect the CT’s l terminal (leaving the CT) to the output load black terminal
(ground).
4. The Watt reading and Amp reading should be multiplied by the CT ratio. The V and
PF readings do not need to be multiplied by the CT ratio.
Warning
: The input receptacles and terminals are connected in parallel (as
are the outputs). Do not touch any metal part of the receptacle or terminal.

PC Interface for Data Acquisition & Datalogging Features
Data Acquisition
Models 380801 and 380803 can be connected to a PC where readings can be logged in
real-time as they are taken. Transferred reading data can be viewed, plotted, statistically
analyzed, printed, saved, and imported in spreadsheet, database, word processing, and
other software programs. Instructions for Data Acquisition are included in the separate
Data Acquisition and Datalogging Manual on the software disc.
You can download a copy of the program from www.Extech.com.
Note: Due to the older version of software, this meter can only operate on Windows XP and
must use a 9-pin COM port on a Desk top PC as it requires the full +/- 10 volt RS232 signal
in order to operate. A USB adapter cannot be used with this meter.
Datalogging (Model 380803 only)
The Model 380803 has built-in memory where over one thousand readings can be stored
for later transfer to PC. Once transferred, data can be viewed, plotted, statistically
analyzed, printed, saved as a text file, and imported in spreadsheet, database, word
processing, and other software programs Instructions for Datalogging are included in the
separate Data Acquisition and Datalogging Manual.
Replacement of Batteries and 20A Fuse
Battery Replacement
When the low battery symbol is displayed on any of the
LCDs, replace the eight (8) 1.5V ‘AA’ batteries.
1. Turn off the power analyzer.
2. Open the battery compartment by using a screw
driver (see diagram).
3. Replace the batteries.
4. Replace the battery compartment.
Never dispose of used batteries or rechargeable batteries in
household waste.
As consumers, users are legally required to take used
batteries to appropriate collection sites, the retail store
where the batteries were purchased, or wherever batteries
are sold.
Disposal: Do not dispose of this instrument in household waste. The user is obligated to take endof-life devices to a designated collection point for the disposal of electrical and electronic
equipment
20A Fuse Replacement
To replace the 20A fuse, remove the fuse cover as indicated in item (5) in the Meter
Description section earlier in this manual and replace the fuse if necessary.
Warning
: Do not replace the blown fuse with a fuse rating greater than 20A.

Measurement of 3-Phase 3-Wire Power
Using One Power Analyzer
Measure WRS first (RST phases must
be correctly identified)
1. Connect the R-phase of the
power source to the black
terminal of the input voltage
2. Connect the S-phase of the
power source to the red terminal
of the input voltage
3. Plug the R-phase of the device
to be tested to the black terminal
of the output load. Do not short
the R-phase of the device to be
tested to the R-phase of the
input power source.
4. Record the reading of WRS
displayed on the ‘W’ LCD.
Measure WTS secondly (RST phases
must be correctly identified)
1. Connect the T-phase of the
power source to the black
terminal of the input voltage
2. Connect S-phase of the power
source to the red terminal of the input voltage
3. Plug the T-phase of the device to be tested to the black terminal of the output
load. Do not short the T-phase of the device to be tested to the T-phase of
