BEFORE USING THE ADAPTOR, READ THE SAFETY
NOTES CAREFULLY AND THOROUGHLY.
5-1. Preparation
(1) Remove the battery compartment cover and install the
batteries. Refer to section 6 for battery replacement.
(2) A DC voltmeter or AC voltmeter is required for DC or AC
current measurement. Connect the output cords to the input
terminals of the voltmeter. In case of DC current
measurements, always insert the red banana plug into the
plus (＋) terminal and the black banana plug into the
minus(−)terminal of any multimeter with an input impedance
of at least 1 kΩ as shown in Fig. 1.
5-2 Measurements
Notes : ● The maximum diameter of a conductor under
test is 19 mm.
Do not clamp onto a conductor larger than this
size. Accurate measurements cannot be made
where the 8113 is clamped onto a larger
conductor with its transformer jaws not fully
closed.
● To obtain maximum accuracy, the transformer
jaws are precisely adjusted. Exercise extreme
care to avoid shock, vibration or excessive
force when using the clamp adaptor.
5-2-1 DC Current Measurements (2A, 20A & 200A ranges)
(1) With the power switch set to ON position, select the desired range.
