AC Current Probe

Model MD304

User Manual

DESCRIPTION

The Model MD304 (Catalog #1201.37) is designed for use in industrial environments. The

hook-shaped jaws enable the user to “pry” into or “hook” onto cables (will accept 2 x 500 MCM)

or even smaller bus bars. The current output up to 500 Arms continuous makes it the perfect

tool for measurement with DMMs, recorders or instruments with current ranges. The Model

Making Measurements with the AC Current Probe Model MD304

• Connect the black and red terminals to the Ampere AC range of your DMM or current

measuring instrument. Select the appropriate current range (10 AAC range). Clamp the

probe around the conductor to be tested with the arrow pointed toward the load. Read the

• For best accuracy, avoid if possible, the proximity of other conductors which may create

noise.

Tips For Making Precise Measurements

• When using a current probe with a meter, it is important to select the range that provides

the best resolution. Failure to do this may result in measurement errors.

• Make sure that probe jaw mating surfaces are free of dust and contamination.

Contaminants cause air gaps between the jaws, increasing the phase shift between
