Measurement Procedure (Current Probe)

Procedure

1. Check that the system is safe, and that the

preparations described in the preceding section
have been carried out.

2. Pull the sensor opening lever, so that the sensor

head opens.

3. Align the sensor so that the current direction

indication corresponds to the direction of
current flow through the conductor to be
measured, and clamp so that the conductor is in
the center of the sensor aperture.

4. Press the opening lever on the sensor head until

the "UNLOCK" indication disappears, and check
that the opening lever is firmly locked and the
sensor head securely closed.
