1. PRESENTATION The K1 and K2 current probes enable the measurement of low DC or AC currents, without opening the circuit being worked on. They connect to a multimeter or any other instrument that has a voltage input and output impedance ³ 1 MW £ 100 pF. These probes measure on one hand, DC currents from 1 mA to 4.5 A for the K1 probe and from 0.1 to 450 mA for the K2 probe, and on the other hand, sinusoidal AC currents from 1 mA to 3 A for the K1 probe and from 0.1 to 300 mA for the K2 probe.
3. HOW TO USE Do not use the K1 and K2 current probes on cables or conductors at a potential in relation to the earth , greater than 300 V. 3.1. SWITCHING ON Put the sliding switch to the appropriate position (1 mV/mA for the K1 and 10 mV/mA for the K2).
