Short-circuit current I
Test range according to IEC 61557 can be calculated on the basis of test ranges Z
voltages.
Display range
0.055 ... 1.999 A
2.00 ... 19.99 A
20.0...199.9A
200...1999A
2.00 ... 19.99 kA
20.0 ... 40.0 kA
Prospective fault current calculated and displayed by the meter may slightly differ from the
value calculated by the user with a calculator, basing on the displayed value of the impedance,
because the meter calculates the current from unrounded value of fault loop impedance (which
is used for displaying). As the correct value, consider I
by firmware.

Additional data
Data on additional uncertainties are useful mainly when the meter is used in non-standard
conditions and for metrological laboratories for the purpose of calibration.
