Measurement categories (Over-voltage categories)
To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environments, categorized as CAT. to CAT., and called measurement categories. Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments with greater momentary energy, so a m e a su r i n g in s t r u m e n t d e s ig n e d f o r CAT. environments can endure greater momentary energy than one designed for CAT.. CAT.Ⅰ: Secondary electrical circuits connected to an
AC electrical outlet through a transformer or similar device.
CAT.Ⅱ: Pr ima ry electr ica l circuits of e qui pme nt
connected to an AC electrical outlet by a power cord.
CAT.Ⅲ:
Primary electrical circuits of the equipment connected directly to the distribution panel, and feeders from the distribution panel to outlets.
CAT.Ⅳ: Th e circuit fro m the ser vice drop t o the
service entrance, and to the power meter and primary over current protection device (distribution panel).

Effective Value (RMS)
Mo st # alte rnat ing cu r re n ts and v o lta ges are ex p res s e d in ef fecti v e values , w h ich are al s o ref erre d to as RMS (Root-Mean-S qu are) values. The effect i v e v a l u e is the square ro o t o f the average of square of alternating current or voltage values. Many clamp meters using a c onventional recti f y i n g circu i t ha v e "R M S" sc a l e s fo r AC measu rement. The s cales are, however, actual ly calibrated in terms of the effective value of a sine wave though the clamp meter is responding to the av e r age val u e . The calib r atio n is don e w i t h a conversion factor of 1.111 for sine wave, which is found by dividing the effective value by the average value. These instruments are therefore in error if the input voltage or current has some other shape than sine wave.
CF (Crest Factor) is found by dividing the peak
value by the effective value. Examples: Sine wave: CF=1.414 Square wave with a 1: 9 duty ratio: CF=3

4. Preparation for measurement
4-1. Checking Battery Voltage
Set the Function Switch to any position other than "OFF". When the display is clear without "BATT" mark, showing battery voltage is enough. When the display is blank or "BATT" mark is indicated, replace the batteries according to Section 7, Battery Replacement.
# CAUTION
The Slee p f e a t u r e au t o m a t i cal l y po w e r s th e instrument off in about 15 min after t
he last switch or key operation. Therefore, the display may be blank even with the Function Switch set to a position other than "OFF". To operate the instrument in this case, turn the switch back to the "OFF" position, then to any other position. Replace the batteries if nothing was displayed after above operations.
4-2. Checking Switch Setting & Operation
Confi rm the Function Switch is set to the correct position, t h e instr u m e n t is set t
o th e co r r e c t measurement mode,and th e Data hold function is disabled. Otherwise,desired measurement cannot be made.
