240 V. It is possible to measure this circuit using a measuring instrument rated for an input-to-ground voltage of 300 V. The PD3259’s input-to-ground voltage rating of 400 V enables it to be safely be used to measure lines with a line voltage of 415 V. - Page 56 About the Instrument’s Voltage Sensors Appx. 2 About the Instrument’s Voltage Sensors Each of the instrument’s voltage sensors incorporates an internal electrode (metal plate). When the voltage sensor is clipped around the measurement target (wire), the minuscule current I flows due to capacitive coupling between the measurement target and the voltage sensor’s internal electrode.
- Page 57 About the Instrument’s Voltage Sensors is controlled so that I = 0. Since V when I = 0, V is measured to obtain V Based on equation (1), I = 0 when V = 0 (when the measurement target and the voltage sensor’s internal electrode are at the same potential).
