SIGLENT This clamps the conductor being measured, and carries out the actual current measurement. It is a precision assembly including a molded component, a ferritecore,and a Hall effect element. It may be damaged if subjected to suddenchanges in ambient temperature, or mechanical strain of shock, and therefore great care should be exercised in handling it.

SIGLENT The reading may be affected by the position within the clamp aperture of the conductor being measured. The conductor should be in the center of the clamp aperture. When carrying out a measurement, press the opening lever until the “UNLOCK” indication disappears and check that the sensor head is properly closed.
SIGLENT Continuous input of current exceeding the rated maximum or repeated activation of the safety function may result in damage to the unit. The probe is rated for maximum input under two conditions in addition to the input maximums shown in the “Characteristics ". Such as CP8030A,these are (1) 30 Apeak for continuous input and (2) 50 Apeak for pulse widths 10 μs.

SIGLENT General Safety Instructions Read the following safety instructions to avoid injury and prevent damage to this product or any products connected to it. Use this product only as specified. Only qualified personnel should perform service procedures. To avoid fire or Personal injury. ...
SIGLENT Getting Started The CP4000 series current probe enables a general purpose oscilloscope to display AC and DC current signals up to 100 amps Peak (70A RMS). The current probe can also make AC and DC measurements with a multimeter by using the recommended accessory MT-246(BNC-to- banana) plug adapter.
SIGLENT Basic Operation Before using the probe, the batteries or specified power adaptor must be installed. WARNING! DO not clamp the probe onto circuits with voltages greater than 600 VAC. Personal Injury or damage to the probe may result. Always connect the CP4000 current probe output to the instrument before clamping onto the circuit under test.
SIGLENT Congratulations on your purchase of CP4000 series, a multifunctional current probe. When connecting to a digital meter, use the recommended MT-246N (BNC to banana adapter). Connect the black lead to the meter COM, and the red lead to the VΩ input . To measure only AC current, set the meter to measure AC volts.
