Safety Information
XW Read First: Safety Information
To avoid shock or personal injury, ensure safe
operation and service of the Leakage Current Clamp
Meter (“Clamp Meter”), follow these instructions:
• Read the operating instructions before use and
follow all safety instructions.
• Use the Clamp Meter only as specified in the
operating instructions otherwise the
instrument’s safety features may not protect
you.
• Adhere to local and national safety codes.
Individual protective equipment must be used
to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
• Before each use, inspect the Clamp Meter. Look
for cracks or missing portions of the clamp
housing. Also look for loose or weakened
components. Pay particular attention to the
insulation surrounding the jaws.
• Disconnect the Clamp Meter from measurable
conductors under test before opening the case
to replace the battery.
• Avoid using the instrument if it has been
exposed to rain or moisture or if your hands are
wet.
• Do not use the instrument in an atmosphere
where flammable or explosive gas is present.
• Do not use the Clamp Meter near noise-emitting
equipment or where there may be sudden
changes in temperature. Otherwise the Clamp
Meter may produce unstable readings or errors.
• Never use the Clamp Meter on a circuit with
voltages greater than 300 V CAT III.
CAT III equipment is designed to protect against
transients in equipment in fixed-equipment
installations, such as distribution panels,
feeders and short branch circuits, and lighting
systems in large buildings.
• Use extreme caution when working around bare
conductors or bus bars. Contact with the
conductor could result in electric shock.
• Use caution when working with voltages above
60 V dc or 30 V ac. Such voltages pose a shock
hazard.
• Do not leave the Clamp Meter exposed to direct
sunlight or in a hot or humid location for any
prolonged period of time.
• Keep fingers behind the tactile barrier. See
Figure 1.
