DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE OR THEORY. Since some states or

countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of an implied warranty or of incidental

or consequential damages, this limitation of liability may not apply to you.

Repair

All test tools returned for warranty or non-warranty repair or for calibration should

be accompanied by the following: your name, company’s name, address, telephone

number, and proof of purchase. Additionally, please include a brief description of

the problem or the service requested and include the test leads with the meter. Non-

warranty repair or replacement charges should be remitted in the form of a check, a

money order, credit card with expiration date, or a purchase order made payable to

Amprobe® Test Tools.

In-Warranty Repairs and Replacement – All Countries

Please read the warranty statement and check your battery before requesting

repair. During the warranty period any defective test tool can be returned to your

Amprobe® Test Tools distributor for an exchange for the same or like product.

Non-Warranty Repairs and Replacement – US and Canada

Non-warranty repairs in the United States and Canada should be sent to a

Amprobe® Test Tools Service Center. Call Amprobe® Test Tools or inquire at your

point of purchase for current repair and replacement rates.

Non-Warranty Repairs and Replacement – Europe

European non-warranty units can be replaced by your Amprobe® Test

Tools distributor for a nominal charge.

SAFETY

This manual contains information and warnings that must be followed

to operate the instrument safely and maintain the instrument in a safe

operating condition. If the instrument is used in a manner not speciﬁed by the

manufacturer, the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired.

The meter meets the requirements for double insulation to EN61010-1:2001;

EN61010-2-032:2002), UL3111-2-032(1999):

Category III 600 Volts ac and dc.

PER IEC61010 OVERVOLTAGE INSTALLATION CATEGORY

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY II

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY II is energy-consuming equipment to

be supplied from the ﬁxed installation.

Note – Examples include household, ofﬁce, and laboratory appliances.

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY III

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY III is equipment in ﬁxed installations.

Note – Examples include switches in the ﬁxed installation and some equipment

for industrial use with permanent connection to the ﬁxed installation.

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY IV

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY IV is for use at the origin of the

installation. Note – Examples include electricity meters and primary over-

current protection equipment.

TERMS IN THIS MANUAL

WARNING identiﬁes conditions and actions that could result in serious injury or

even death to the user.

CAUTION identiﬁes conditions and actions that could cause damage or

malfunction in the instrument.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of ﬁre or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or

moisture. The meter is intended only for indoor use.

To avoid electrical shock hazard, observe the proper safety precautions when

working with voltages above 60 VDC or 30 VAC rms. These voltage levels pose a

potential shock hazard to the user.

Inspect test leads, connectors, and probes for damaged insulation or exposed metal

before using the instrument. If any defects are found, replace them immediately.

Do not touch test lead tips or the circuit being tested while power is applied to

the circuit being measured. To avoid accidentally short circuit of bare (uninsulated)

hazardous live conductors or busbars, switch them off before insertion and removal

of the current clamp jaws. Contact with the conductor could result in electric shock.

Keep your hands/ﬁngers behind the hand/ﬁnger barriers that indicate the limits of

safe access of the meter and the test leads during measurement.

Do not use the instrument in presence of explosive gas (material),

combustible gas (material), steam or dust.

CAUTION

Disconnect the test leads from the test points before changing meter functions.

ACA Current clamp-on function

Set the slide-switch function selector to the position. Inputs are made

through the clamp jaws for non-invasive ACA current measurements.

CAUTION

• Press the jaw trigger and clamp the jaws around the hot conductor of a circuit

for load current measurement. Make sure the jaws are completely closed, or

else it will introduce measurement errors. Enclosing more than one conductor

of a circuit will result in differential current (like identifying leakage current)

measurement.

• Adjacent current-carrying devices such as transformers, motors and conductor

wires will affect measurement accuracy. Keep the jaws away from them as

much as possible to minimize inﬂuence.

Hi-Z DCV, ACV & Line-Level Hz functions

Set the slide-switch function selector to the position that selects common

impedance (Hi-Z) voltage measurements. Input impedance is set at

approximately 5MΩto minimize loading on circuits under tests. DCV is

the default function. The DC symbol “” appears. Press SELECT button

momentarily to select ACV. The AC symbol “” a ppears. Press momentarily

again to activate the Line-Level Hz function.

Note:

• Line-Level Hz input sensitivity varies automatically with ACV range selected

when Line-Level Hz is selected. AC 6V range has the highest and AC 600V

range has the lowest sensitivity. Measuring the signal in ACV function WHILE

selecting Line-Level Hz function in that ACV range automatically sets the

most appropriate sensitivity for higher voltage applications. This can avoid

electrical noises as in 110/220V line voltage applications for example. If the

reading shows zero due to insufﬁcient signal levels, select Line-Level Hz

function BEFORE making measurements (at AC 6V range) will set the highest

sensitivity.
