Overview
This Operating Manual covers information on safety and cautions. Please
read the relevant information carefully and observe all the Warnings and
Notes strictly.
Warning
To avoid electric shock or personal injury, read the “Safety
Information” and “Rules for Safe Operation” carefully before using the
Meter.
This is a three phase intelligent handheld digital power clamp meter
(hereafter referred to as “the Meter”) which has both the features of digital
current meter and also power measurement meter.
The Meter can measure Voltage, Current, Active Power, Apparent Power,
Reactive Power, Power Factor, Phase Angle, Frequency, Active Energy and
etc.
Unpacking Inspection
Open the package case and take out the Meter. Check the following items
carefully to see any missing or damaged part:

In the event you find any missing or damage, please contact your dealer
immediately.
Safety Information
This Meter complies with the standards IEC61010: in pollution degree 2,
overvoltage category (CAT. III 600V,CAT IV 300V) and double insulation.
CAT. III: Distribution level, fixed installation, with smaller transient
overvoltages than CAT. IV
CAT.IV: Primary supply level, overhead lines, cable systems etc.
Use the Meter only as specified in this operating manual, otherwise the
protection provided by the Meter may be impaired.
In this manual, a Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose
hazards to the user, or may damage the Meter or the equipment under test.
A Note identifies the information that user should pay attention to
International electrical symbols used on the Meter and in this Operating
Manual are explained on page 6.
Rules For Safe Operation
Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury, and to avoid
possible damage to the Meter or to the equipment under test, adhere
to the following rules:
Before using the Meter inspect the case. Do not use the Meter if it
is damaged or the case (or part of the case) is removed. Look for
cracks or missing plastic. Pay attention to the insulation around the
connectors.
Inspect the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal.
Replace damaged test leads with identical model number or electrical
specifications before using the Meter.
Do not apply more that the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter.
When measurement has been completed, disconnect the
connection between the test leads and the circuit under test, remove
the testing leads away from the input terminals of the Meter and turn
![](/html/40/400b/400b3f167c2953d2cc78c4d2f4ce1f4564b6bef2bdaf15452bd598808b5a721b/bg3.png)
the Meter power off.
Do not carry out the measurement when the Meter’s back case and
/ or battery door is opened to avoid electric shock.
When the Meter working at an effective voltage over 30V in AC,
special care should be taken.
Use the proper terminals and function for your Measurements.
Do not use or store the Meter in an environment of high
temperature, humidity, explosive, inflammable and strong magnetic
field. The performance of the Meter may deteriorate after dampened.
Do not use the Meter if the surface of it is wet or the user’s hands
are wet.
When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger
guards.
Replace the battery as soon as the battery Indicator appears.
With a low battery, the Meter might produce false readings that can
lead to electric shock and personal injury.
When opening the battery door, must make sure the Meter is
power off.
When servicing the Meter, use only the same model number or
identical electrical specifications replacement parts.
The internal circuit of the Meter shall not be altered at will to avoid
damage of the Meter and any accident.
Soft cloth and mild detergent should be used to clean the surface
of the Meter when servicing.
No abrasive and solvent should be used to prevent the surface of the
Meter from corrosion, damage and accident.
The Meter is suitable for indoor use.
Turn the Meter off when it is not in use and take out the battery
when not using for a long time.
Constantly check the battery as it may leak when it has been using
for some time, replace the battery as soon as leaking appears.
A leaking battery will damage the Meter.

![](/html/40/400b/400b3f167c2953d2cc78c4d2f4ce1f4564b6bef2bdaf15452bd598808b5a721b/bgb.png)
1. Insert the red test lead into the V A terminal, blue test lead into the V B
terminal, yellow test lead to V C input terminal and black test lead to the
COM input terminal.
2. Connect the red test leads (VA input terminal), blue test leads (VB input
terminal) and yellow test leads (VC input terminal) to the corresponding
three phases loaded live wire. Black test lead (COM input terminal) to the
corresponding three phases loaded neutral wire.
3. Press SELECT to select phase location, the display shows the
corresponding phase symbol. VA means the first phase A, VB means
the first phase B,VC means the first phase C.
4. The display shows the corresponding True RMS voltage value and
frequency value of each phase.
5. Press MAX/▲ , the LCD displays MAX, it starts recording the maximum
AC voltage True RMS value. Press MAX/▲ again to show the current AC
voltage True RMS value.
6. Press MIN/▼ the LCD displays MAX, it starts recording the minimum AC
voltage True RMS value. Press MAX/▼ again to show the current AC
voltage True RMS value.
7. The display shows 9999 when the input voltage is higher than 600V rms.
Note
●When the measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection
between the testing leads and the circuit under test and remove testing
leads from the input terminals.
B. AC Current (main display) + AC Voltage (secondary display)
Measurement
The AC current ranges are: 40A, 100A, 400A and 1000A
The AC Voltage ranges are: 15V, 100V, 300V and 600V
To measure AC current + AC voltage, connect the Meter as follows:
1. Press the Kw to select AC Current (main display) + AC Voltage
(secondary display) range.
2. Press the lever to open the transformer jaw.
3. Center the conductor within the transformer jaw, then release the Meter
slowly until the transformer jaw is completely closed, Make sure the
conductor to be tested is placed at the center of the transformer jaw,
![](/html/40/400b/400b3f167c2953d2cc78c4d2f4ce1f4564b6bef2bdaf15452bd598808b5a721b/bgc.png)
otherwise it will cause deviation. The Meter can only measure one
conductor at a time, to measure more than one conductor at a time will
cause deviation.
4. The double display shows the AC current True RMS value and AC
voltage True RMS value.
5. Press MAX/▲, the LCD displays MAX, it starts recording the maximum
AC current True RMS value.
Press MAX/▲ again to show the present AC True RMS value.
6. Press MIN/▼ , the LCD displays MAX, it starts recording the minimum
AC current True RMS value. Press MAX/▲ , again to show the present AC
current True RMS value.
7. The display shows 9999 when the current of the tested conductor is
higher than 1000A rms.
Note
●When the measurement has been completed, disconnect the connection
between the conductor under test and the jaw, and remove the conductor
away from the transformer jaw of the Meter.
C. Active Power (main display) + Phase Angle (secondary display)
Measurement
The active power ranges are:40A, 100A, 400A and 1000A
The phase angle ranges are: 0° ~360°
Warning
To avoid damages to the Meter or harms to you, do you measure
higher than AC voltage 600 v.r.s. and AC current 1000A v.r.s.
To measure active power + phase angle, connect the Meter as follows:
1. Press the MENU to select Active power (main display) + Phase angle
(secondary display) range.
2. Press the lever to open the transformer jaw, and clamp them to the
corresponding phase of tested conductor. If user needs to measure any
phase of the 3 phase, then clamp them to that phase’s conductor.
3. Connecting method (see figure 6, 7, 8):
● When measuring 3 phase 4 wires, connect the
Meter as figure 6.
