2.1 Current Measurements
1.
Set the Range switch to the highest 400A range.
2.
Press the trigger to open transformer jaws, clamp onto one
conductor only and release trigger. Jaws should be completely
closed. Read the current directly on the display. It is
recommended that the conductor be placed at th e center of
the closed jaws for maximum accuracy (Fig. - 1).
