Description
The Greenlee CLM-1000 and CLM-1000E Cable Length Meters are hand-held testing devices with the follow­ing measurement capabilities: resistance, temperature, and length. They can be used as μΩ meters to measure precise bonding resistances. The primary function of these meters is to calculate the length of cable based upon its material, temperature, and cable gauge. Cable material type can be either uncoated copper or aluminum. There are 20 pre-programmed and eight programmable cable gauges. (There are no strands per cable specification for the eight programmable switch positions.)
The pre-programmed switch positions for the CLM-1000are:
• AWG (7 strands) – 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18
• Aught (19 strands) – 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0
• kcmil (37 strands) – 250, 350, 400, 500
• kcmil (61 strands) – 600, 750, 1000
The pre-programmed switch positions for the CLM-1000Eare:
• mm2 (7 strands) – 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2.5, 4, 6, 10, 16, 25, 35
• mm2 (19 strands) – 50, 70, 95
• mm2 (37 strands) – 120, 150, 185, 240
• mm2 (61 strands) – 300, 400, 500
Other capabilities include:
• Automatic temperature compensation
• Hold Mode to capture the present LCD value
• Programmable
• Auto Power Off
• Automatic ranging
• Backlight

Using the Features
: Press momentarily to turn the backlight ON. Once
lit, press button again to turn the backlight OFF. The backlight automatically turns OFF after approximately 30 seconds to extend battery life.
FT/M: Press momentarily to select length measurement
units. On the LCD, “ft” indicates feet and “m” indicates meters.
CAL: The meter must be calibrated each time it is
turned ON. Refer to “Operation” for a complete descrip­tion of the calibration process.
Esc: Press to escape from programming process.
MEM: Button is used for the user-selected program-
ming function. Refer to “Operation” for a complete description of the programming process.
Cu/Al: Press momentarily to select cable material.
On the LCD, “Cu” indicates copper and “Al” indicates aluminum.
HOLD: Press momentarily to enter data hold mode.
When button is pressed, “dH” is present on the LCD and the current value is captured. To exit this mode, press the HOLD, FT/M or Cu/Al button. “dH” is no longer present on the LCD.
Auto Power Off (APO): When enabled, the meter will
tically turn OFF after 10 minutes of inactiv-
automa ity. Inactivity is defined as no button press or rotary switch movement. The buzzer sounds three times approximately 30 seconds before the meter turns OFF as a warning. To disable APO, press and hold the HOLD button while turning the meter ON.

Operating Procedure
1. If the unit does not function as expected on a known functioning configuration, replace the batteries.
If the unit still does not function as expected, call
Greenlee for technical assistance at 800-435-0786.
2. Refer to “Typical Measurements” for specific mea­surement instructions.
3. The meter does not compensate for manufacturing tolerances of various cable manufacturers.
4. Before making a measurement, ensure the following:
• Cable conductors have been cleaned with
abrasive material to remove oxide layer and other contaminants.
• Kelvin clip jaws are clean.
• Both the cable and meter are at the same
temperature.
• Cable conductor material must be either aluminum
or copper.

To measure odd cable sizes:
AWG (5,
7, 9, 11 AWG, etc.) (CLM-1000):
measuring odd numbered cable sizes, set the rotar switch to the next smaller size, and multiply the reading by 1.261.
For example, to measure a 9 AWG length of cable, set the rotary switch to 10 AWG. Then multiply the reading by 1.261 to get the length.
kcmil (CLM-1000): When measuring odd
numbered cable sizes, set the rotar 1000kcmil. Divide kcmil size of cable being mea­sured by 1000, and then multiply this number by the meter’s length reading.
For example, 477 kcmil cable is being measured. The multiplier becomes 477/1000 = 0.477. Take the value shown with the rotary switch in the 1000 kcmil position and multiply it by 0.477 to get the length.
2
mm
(CLM-1000E): When measuring odd
numbered cable sizes, set the rotary switch to
500mm2. Divide mm2 size of cable being mea-
sured by 500, and then multiply this number by the meter’s length reading.
For example, 289 mm2 cable is being measured. The multiplier becomes 289/500 = 0.596. Take the value shown with the rotary switch in the 500 mm2 position and multiply it by 0.596 to get the length.

Programming Procedure
1. Calibrate meter according to “Calibration Procedure.”
2. Obtain known length of cable between 30 ft and 320ft (9 m and 97.5 m) long. Cable must be alumi­num or copper.
3. Set rotary switch to desired location. Programmable location appears on the LCD. If the location has already been programmed, “OL” appears on the LCD. If it has not, “no” appears.
Note: Data in a programmed location can be deleted. With Kelvin clips removed from cable and rotary switch turned to location to delete, press MEM button.
4. Press CAL button.
5. Enter the known length of cable in feet or meters. Useqp arrows.
6. Select “Cu” or “Al”.
7. Connect Kelvin clips to the conductor on each end of the cable.
8. Press MEM button. “MEM” and dashes appear on the LCD. After approximately 1 second, “donE” appears on the LCD if programming was successful. If “FAIL” appears, check connections and repeat procedure.
