I. Introduction
The UT255C Large Current Fork Meter is specifically designed and manufactured to
measure high-voltage current. Its innovative U-shaped clamp, which features a breakthrough
in conventional structure, makes on-site measurement effortless.
This versatile device comprises a current fork meter, a wireless receiver, and a high-voltage
hot stick. With a wireless transfer distance of up to 100 meters and a current range of AC
0.00A~9999A, the UT255C can accurately measure the current of high-voltage lines below
60KV when connected to a hot stick. Conversely, for low-voltage lines below 600V, the
hook meter can directly measure the current without the need for a hot stick.
The UT255C is equipped with several useful features, such as data holding and storage.
Additionally, the adjustable connector at the hot stick and U-shaped clamp jaws make it easy
to clamp the measured conductor. Furthermore, it can serve as an alternative to the
High/Low-Voltage Transformer Turns Ratio Tester by measuring the high/low-voltage current
of primary and secondary loops and calculating the transformer turns ratio. The hot stick is
characterized as being lightweight, retractable, moisture-proof, high temperature resistant,
impact-proof, and highly insulated.
The UT255C Large Current Fork Meter is extensively employed in a variety of settings,
including substations, power plants, industrial and mining enterprises, detection stations, and
electrical servicing departments.
