3.8 Using a Current Sensor Before connecting a current sensor Please read "Operating Precautions" (p.5) carefully before connecting a current sensor to the instru- ment. When the clamp sensor is opened, do not short-circuit two wires to be measured by bringing the metal part of the clamp into contact with them, and do not use over bare conductors.
3.8 Using a Current Sensor Connecting a TYPE.1 current sensor Connect the current sensor directly to one of the instrument’s external current sensor input terminal. Connect the current sensor’s BNC connector to a external current sensor input termi- nal. Align the groove on the BNC connector with the connector guides on the instru- ment and insert.
