    • Open the clamp head, insert the electric wire and close the clamp head. • Ensure the electric wire is held in the geometric centre, indicated on the clamp head and make sure the clamp heads are closed. • Read the measurement data from the LCD. When the reading is positive it means the current flows from the positive side to the negative side and vice versa.
