Switch the range as required. Clamp the instrument around the object under measurement. Wear appropriate protective gear such as gloves. Clamp the instrument so that the object under measurement is located at the center of the jaws. Read the measured value. HIOKI CM4001A963-01...
Clamp around two wires together in a bundle in the single-phase 2-wire circuit. Clamp around four wires together in a bundle in the three-phase 4-wire circuit. Even when the instrument cannot be clamped, you can measure leakage current using the ground wire of the equipment instead. HIOKI CM4001A963-01...

Depending on the magnitude of the input current, the jaws may generate a sound due to resonance; however, this does not affect any measurement. When you cannot find the magnitude of an input current, disable the filter function and start measurement using the auto range or 600.0 A range. HIOKI CM4001A963-01...

Example: If 10.05 mA is displayed in the 60.00 mA range and 30.2 mA is displayed in the 600.0 mA range, trust 30.2 mA in the 600.0 mA range. For detailed information, visit the GENNECT Cross website. HIOKI CM4001A963-01...
When both the following conditions are satisfied, the instrument freezes the readout. The measured value does not fluctuate beyond the variation range for a certain period. The measured value exceeds the threshold value. The instrument continues to freeze the readout until the auto-hold conditions are satisfied again. HIOKI CM4001A963-01...
