AC/DC Current Clamp
Instruction Sheet
Safety Information
XW Read First: Safety Information
To ensure safe operation and service of the
current clamp, follow these instructions:
• Read all operating instructions before use and follow all
safety instructions.
• Use the Current Clamp only as specified in the
operating instructions, otherwise the clamp’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.
• Do not hold the Current Clamp anywhere beyond the
tactile barrier. See Features and Connections.
• Before each use, inspect the Current Clamp. Look for
cracks or missing portions of the clamp housing or
output cable insulation. Also look for loose or weakened
components. Pay particular attention to the insulation
surrounding the jaws.
• Never use the clamp on a circuit with voltages higher
than 600 V (CAT. III) or a frequency higher than 400 Hz
(i410) or 2 kHz (i1010).
• 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,
30 V ac rms or 42 V ac peak. Such voltages pose a
shock hazard.
