SIAC
(Security Internal Anti Short Circuit)
TM
SIAC
(Security Internal Anti Short Circuit), patent applied for,
provides protection against short circuits between adjacent
primary conductors when clamped around conductors. This
mechanism ensures that the magnetic circuit separates at the
bottom of the jaw prior to the jaw opening at the top.
A detent action produced by SIAC™ can be felt when opening
the jaws. This detent action should always be present in use.
If the jaws open smoothly, service is indicated and the Clamp
should be inspected at the nearest Fluke Service Center. See
"Contacting Fluke".
Operating Instructions
To avoid electric shock or personal injury when
using the Clamp:
Ensure that your fingers are behind the tactile
barrier as shown in Figure 1.
Do not use the Clamp if any part, including the
lead and connector(s), appears to be damaged
or if a malfunction of the instrument is
suspected.
Clamp around the current carrying conductor
ensuring good contact between the jaw faces.
Center the cable between the Clamp jaws.
The arrow on the labels shows the direction of the
current flow form the source to the lead. In order to have
a correct phase relationship between the primary
current and the clamp output, care must be taken
regarding the direction of current flow.
