To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury:
•
The Probe is to only be used and handled by qualified
personnel.
•
Always connect to display device before it is installed
around the conductor.
•
Use the Product only as specified, or the protection
supplied by the Product can be compromised.
•
High voltages and currents can be in adjacent circuits
under test.
•
Before each use, examine the Product. Look for cracks
or missing pieces of the clamp housing or output cable
insulation. Also look for loose or weakened
components. Carefully examine the insulation around
the jaws.
•
Do not use if the output cable wear indicator shows
(contrasting color inner insulation).
•
Do not use and disable the Product if it is damaged.
•
Comply with local and national safety codes. Use
personal protective equipment (approved rubber
gloves, face protection, and flame-resistant clothes) to
prevent shock and arc blast injury where hazardous
live conductors are exposed.
•
Do not work alone.
•
Limit operation to the specified measurement category,
voltage, or amperage ratings.
•
De-energize the circuit or wear personal protective
equipment in compliance with local requirements
before you apply or remove the Flexible Current Probe.
•
Do not touch voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or
60 V dc.
•
Equipment is to be used in 600 V CAT IV and 1000 V
CAT III environments.
•
Do not use the Product around explosive gas, vapor, or
in damp or wet environments.
Operating Instructions
1.
Connect the Probe to the product current input jack.
2.
Wear protective equipment or de-energize the circuit
and place the Probe around the conductor under test.
To lock the coil, see Figure 1.
3.
Re-energize the circuit.
4.
Observe and take measurements as required.
Positive output indicates that the current flow is in the
direction shown by the arrow on the Probe.
5.
Wear protective gloves or de-energize the circuit
before removal of the Probe.

Warning
Cleaning
Clean the Probe periodically by wiping it with a damp cloth and
detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Do not
immerse the Probe in liquids.
Symbols
Do not dispose of this product as unsorted municipal
waste. Go to Fluke's website for recycling information.
Do not apply to or remove from hazardous, live
conductors, without using personal protective equipment.
Product is protected by double insulation.
