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.
