DANGER is re ser ved for conditions and act ions that are
#
likely to cause serious or fatal injury.
WARNI NG is reserved for c onditions and actions that can
#
cause serious or fatal Injur y.
CAUTION is reserved for conditions and actions that can
#
cause minor injur y or instr ument damage.
● Confir m a pr oper operation of the instrument with a we ll­known power supply.
● Warning LED might not light up at live status. (earth potential 70V or less). Never touch the wire.
● Voltages may exist when the Live LED is f lashing (indicating Earth phase). Never touc h with the wires.
● Never make mea suremen t on a circuit in w hic h the ear th potential exceeds 100 0V to avoid electrical shocks.
● Do not make measurement when thunder is rumbling. If the instrument is in use, stop the measurement immediately and remove the instrument from the measured object.
● Do not attempt to make measu rem ent in the presence of flammable gasses. Otherwise, the use of the instrument may cause sparking, which can lead to an explosion.
● Keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier on the instrument to avoid the possible shock ha zard.
#
DANGER
#
● Put insul ate d protecti ve gears when there is a da nger of electrical shock hazard.
● The ti p of cl ip is ma de of metal an d it is not c om pl etely insulated. Be especially careful about the possible shorting where the measured object has exposed metal parts.
● Never attempt to use th e instrument if it's surface or your hand is wet.
Other wise, electrical shock accident may occur.
● Never open the Battery compartment cover and the instrument case when making a measurement.
● The instrument is to be used only in its intended applications or conditions. Otherwise, safety functions equipped with the instrument doesn’t work, and instrument damage or serious personal injury may be caused.
● Only the qual if ied p er so n can use the inst rume nt at the secondary side of high voltage power receiving equipments.
WARNI NG
● Never attempt to make any measurement, if any abnormal con dit ion s are noted, such as bro ken case, and exp ose d metal par ts.
Do not install substi tute par ts or make any modifi cat ion to the instrument. Return the instrument to your local Kyoritsu distributor for repair or re-calibration in case of suspected fault y operation.
● Always keep your fingers and hands behind the barrier on the instr ument to avoid the possible shoc k hazard.
● Do n ot try to repl ac e batteri es if the sur face o f the instrument is wet.
Disco nnect the clips from the measu red condu ctors fi rst
and power of f th e instr ument before op ening the Ba tter y compar tment c over for a battery replacement.
● Do not apply shocks, vibrations or excessive forces onto the Measurement clips.
● Never force to open the Measurement clips when they are frozen.
● This instrument can be operated with safe at temperatures between -10ºC and 50 ºC and altitude up to 2000m.
● Keep away from dust and water.
● Precise measurement cannot be made near a charged body or equipment generating electromagnetic waves.
● Measurable conductor size is between dia. 2.4mm and 30mm. Accurate measurem ents for conductors out of this range cannot be made.
● Measured results are inf luenced by voltage wires on which twice or more of the measured voltages exist near the point to be clipped.
The clip point should be far from such voltage wires.
This instrument cannot identify wiring status correctly when an earth line is connected bet ween phases via delta c onnection. Check the connection specific ation of the measured object.
● Incapable of measuring bus bars or shielded wires. Clip onto a covered conductor and make a measurement.
All the clips should be clipped onto the covered wires and make measurements. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.
#
CAUTION
#
● Do not touch the Clips during measurements to get accurate results.
● This instrument cannot find the missing line of the earth line. Do not pull the cable when removing the Measurement clips
● from the measured conductors. It may cause a break in cable.
● Power off the instr ument af ter use. Remove the bat ter ies if the instrument is to be stored and will not be in use for a long period.
● Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight, high­temperature and humidity or dew.
● Dry and store the instrument if it is wet.
● Do not step on or pinch the cord to prevent the jacket of cable from being damaged.
● Bending or pulling the cord may cause a break in a cord.
● Neve r give shocks, su ch as v ibr ati on or d rop, which may damage the instrument.
● Use a damp cloth and detergent for cleaning the instrument. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

This instrument satisf ies the marking requirement defined in th e WEEE Directive. This symbol indicates separa te collection for electrical and electronic equipment.
○ Measurement Category To ensure safe operation of measuring instruments, IEC 61010 establishes safety standards for various electrical environ­ments, categorized as O to CAT.IV, and called measurement categories. Higher-numbered categories correspond to electrical environments with greater momentary energy, so a measuring instrument designed for CAT.III environments can endure greater momentary energy than one designed for CAT.II.
O : Circuits which are not directly connected to the mains
power supply.
CAT.II : Electrical circuits of equipment 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 : The circuit from the service drop to the service
entrance, and to the power meter and primary overcurrent protection device (distribution panel).

2. Features
● This is a Phase indic ator and c an indicate a presence of live line and phase sequence with the equipped LED and Buzzer while clipping the 3-phase line over the jacket of a conductor.
● Brightness switch is equipped to make the indication visible in dimly lit areas.
● A ma gn et on the back si de of the inst rument can fix th e instrument onto the distribution board and enables safety and easy measurements.
● Designed to International safety standard IEC 61010-1 (CAT. III 1000V/ CAT.IV, 600V, Pollution degree 2)

6. Battery Replacement
CAUTION
● Power off the instrument and remove the Measurement clips from the measured object when replacing batteries to avoid electrical shocks.
● Do not mix old and new batteries.
● Inst all batterie s in corre ct polarity as indicated inside the case. Use the same model of batteries from the same manufacturer.
Whe n th e Power LED on the fron t si de of t he instr ument is flashing, batte ry voltage is low. Repla ce batteri es with new ones to continue further measurements. Low battery voltage may not affect measurement accuracies. The instrument is powered off automatically when bat teries are exhausted.
1) Loosen the screw fixing the Battery compartment cover.
2) Slide the Battery compartment cover downwards to remove
it.
3) Re place th e batteries with new ones . Fo ur size AA LR6
alkaline or equivalent 1.5V AA type batteries should be used.
4) Install the Batter y compartment cover and tighten the screw.
