Description: Voltage measurement cables are provided as standard accessories and are
stored in a cable pouch as part of the measurement cable set, P/N VSC-HDPQ. Each
cable set consists of a cable and alligator clip.
Voltage Rating: Direct connection of all voltage measurement cables are rated at 1000
VCAT III Vrms max. For measuring voltages greater than 1000 Vrms, potential
transformers (PTs) must be used.
Contents: Example photo of HDPQ Xplorer with voltage measurement cable and
optional fused voltage adapter is shown on page 2-6. A cable set consists of eight, 6-
foot channel measurement cable assemblies (probes), each with a detachable, alligator
jaw, safety clip assembly (maximum jaw opening, 3/4 in (20 mm)). There are four (4)
black and four (4) white safety clips. While there are eight (8) black cables with
different color wire markers to identify which phase or circuit wire each is connected
to.
A pouch for storage of the cables and the AC adapter/battery charger is included in the
contents of the measurement cable set, but is not shown in the figure.
There are two optional fuse voltage adapter accessory kits available for use with the
measurement cables for the HDPQ Xplorer. A single kit (P/N FVA-1K1) contains one
(1) fuse voltage adapter and one (1) black measurement connecting cable 50 cm in
length. The other kit (P/N FVA-1K4) contains four (4) fuse voltage adapters and four
(4) black measurement connecting cables 50 cm in length. These fuse voltage adapters
are rated up to 1000V AC/DC applications.
A wire marker kit consisting of snap-on wire markers in various colors are also
supplied with each fuse voltage adapter to be used for identifying connections
applicable to your installation.
The single fuse voltage adapter kit is used for one single voltage measurement input.
While the four fuse voltage adapter kit is used for a three phase and neutral voltage
measurement inputs.
Each kit consisting of snap-on wire markers in various colors is supplied as described
in the following table. These wire markers are to be used to identify each wire
connection applicable to your installation.
