Usage Notes
Measurement precautions
To avoid electrical shock accident, do not short test leads where voltage is applied.
• To prevent electric shock accident or damage to the instrument, do not apply voltage to any measurement terminal. To avoid electrical accident, remove power from the measurement target before measurement.
• Electrical sparks may occur at the moment of connecting/disconnecting
the power cable to/from the measurement target. Do not use the
instrument where combustible gases are generated.
• Do not measure a point where voltage is applied. When a motor is turned off, the motor does not stop immediately and is rotating
inertially. And, in such a state, a
large electromotive force is still being generated. If a transformer or motor is measured immediately after a voltage withstand test, the instrument will be damaged due to induced voltage or residual charge.
• When measuring a transformer or coil with an inductance of 5 H or more
and with a resistance of 1 in which a measurement current of 1 A ows. The instrument may be
damaged.
• Do not attempt to measure the internal resistance of a battery. The instrument will be damaged. To measure internal resistance of a battery,
use a HIOKI 3554, 3555, BT3562, BT3563, or 3561 Battery HiTESTER.
DANGER
WARNING
The measurement target is connected to power.
CAUTION
Rotating inertially
or less, do not use the 3mΩ or 30mΩ range
Ω
12
Usage Notes
IMPORTANT
• The SOURCE terminals are protected with a fuse. If the fuse is broken, “FUSE” appears, and resistance cannot be measured. In such a case, replace the fuse.
(p. 116)
• Since the instrument uses DC current for measurement, it may be affected by thermal EMF (thermoelectromotive force), resulting in a measurement error. If so,
use the Offset Voltage Compensation function.
“4.4 Compensating for Thermal EMF Offset (Offset Voltage Compensation Function: OVC Function)” (p. 51) “Appx. 6 Effect of Thermoelectromotive Force (Thermal EMF)” (p. Appx.8)
When a power transformer or open solenoid coil with a high inductance, or the like is measured, the measured value may not stabilize. If so, connect a lm capacitor of 1 µF or so between the SOURCE A and B terminals.
• Ensure that the SOURCE-A, SENSE-A, SENSE-B, and SOURCE-B terminal connections are isolated from each other. If a core or shield wire touches another, the instrument will become unable to perform accurate four-terminal measurement, resulting in a measurement error.
1 2 3 4
Using the Z2002 Temperature Sensor
CAUTION
The Z2002 Temperature Sensor does not have a waterproof construction. Do not put the sensor into water or any other liquid.
IMPORTANT
When using the temperature correction function, wait until the measurement target and Z2002 Temperature Sensor come close enough to ambient
temperature for the measurement. Otherwise, it may result in a large measurement error.
• Do not hold the Z2002 Temperature Sensor with a bare hand. It may cause
enough noise pickup to destabilize the measurement.
• The Z2002 Temperature Sensor is designed for ambient temperature measurement. The temperature of a measurement target cannot be measured
correctly even if the Z2002 Temperature Sensor is attached to its surface or other
portion.
• Insert the Z2002 Temperature Sensor all the way into the TEMP.SENSOR terminal. Otherwise, the measurement may have a large error.

* In the following cases, perform zero adjustment:
The display is not cleared due to thermal EMF or other factors. → The display will be changed
to zero.
(Accuracy is not affected by whether or not the zero adjustment is performed.)
Thermal EMF can also be canceled by using OVC. (p. 51)
Four-terminal connection (called Kelvin connection) is difcult. → The residual resistance of the two-terminal connection wires will be canceled. For zero adjustment procedures, see (p. Appx.11).
