<SupplemenIal remarks`
_ EffecIive value (RMS)
MosI alIernaIin currenIs and volIaes are expressed in effecIive values, which are also
referred Io as RMS (RooI-Mean-Square) values. The effecIive value is Ihe square rooI of
Ihe averae of square of alIernaIin currenI or volIae values. Many clamp meIers usin
a convenIional recIifyin circuiI have 'RMS' scales for AC measuremenI. The scales are,
however, acIually calibraIed in Ierms of Ihe effecIive value of a sine wave Ihouh Ihe clamp
meIer is respondin Io Ihe averae value. The calibraIion is done wiIh a conversion facIor of
1.111 for sine wave, which is found by dividin Ihe effecIive value by Ihe averae value.
These insIrumenIs are Iherefore in error if Ihe inpuI volIae or currenI has some oIher shape
Ihan sine wave.
_ CF (CresI FacIor) is found by dividin Ihe peak value by Ihe effecIive value.
Examples:
Sine wave: CF-1.414 Square wave wiIh a 1: 9 duIy raIio: CF-8

5. Measurement principle
This insIrumenI can measure Ihe earIh resisIance Io earIh in mulIi-earIhed sysIem.
LeI's reard earIh resisIance under IesI as Rx, and Ihe oIher earIh resisIances as
R1, R2, Rn.
Of Ihese earIh resisIances, R1, R2, Rn can be considered IhaI Ihey are
connecIed in parallel.
And can be rearded as a combined resisIance Rs. The Rs can be rearded small
enouh aainsI Rx since a combined resisIance consisIs of several resisIances.
Followin is an equivalenI circuiI diaram of Ihis circuiI.

M-4102A
By applyin Ihe VolIae (V) Io Ihe circuiI from Ihe Transformer |aw (CT1), currenI l
is (shall be flowed) flowed correspondin Io Ihe earIh resisIance. R can be puI ouI
by Ihe calculaIion afIer deIecIin Ihe currenI wiIh Ihe oIher Transformer |aw (CT2).
ln Ihis case, R displayed in Ihis insIrumenI can be rearded as Rx because Rs can
be rearded small enouh aainsI Rx.
#CAUTION
This insIrumenI is noI supporIin Ihe measuremenI for Ihe locaIions wiIh

6. Getting started
(1) Check Ihe baIIery volIae
When noIhin is displayed on Ihe LCD, press Ihe power buIIon and Iurn
on Ihe insIrumenI. BaIIery volIae is enouh when indicaIion is clear and Ihe
' ' symbol is noI displayed on Ihe LCD afIer Iurnin on Ihe insIrumenI.
Follow Ihe procedure described in 9. Battery replacement`and replace Ihe
baIIeries wiIh new ones when any of followin sympIoms is noIed. OIherwise,
accuraIe measuremenI and proper savin cannoI be ensured.
* ' ' symbol is bein displayed.
* indicaIions are fainI and difficulI Io read.
* noIhin is displayed on Ihe LCD.
(2) Verify Ihe correcI measuremenI of earIh resisIance
Clamp-on Ihe supplied resisIor for operaIion check as shown below, and verify
IhaI Ihe Transformer |aw and Ihe circuiI works correcIly. When Ihe indicaIed
value is wiIhin Ihe rane described below, Ihey are operaIin correcIly. lf Ihe
indicaIed value is reaIly exceedin Ihe accuracy, send Ihe insIrumenI Io your
local KYORlTSU disIribuIor for repair or recalibraIion.
For repair, Ihe resisIor for operaIion check shall be aIIached and reIurned
IoeIher wiIh Ihe insIrumenI.
#
CAUTION
This insIrumenI performs self-calibraIion for abouI 8 seconds when iI is Iurned
on. (' ' is displayed on Ihe LCD.) Do noI clamp onIo any conducIor or
open Ihe |aws in Ihis period. OIherwise, inaccuraIe measuremenI may occur.

7. Measuring method
#
DANGER
Never make measuremenI on a circuiI in which Ihe elecIrical poIenIial
exceeds AC800V.
Transformer |aws are made of meIal and Iheir Iips are noI compleIely
insulaIed. Be especially careful abouI Ihe possible shorIin where Ihe
equipmenI under IesI has exposed meIal parIs.
Never make measuremenI wiIh Ihe BaIIery cover removed.
Do noI measure a currenI over 80A. Transformer |aws may heaI Io cause
a fire or deformaIion of moldin parIs, which will derade insulaIion. When
clampin Ihe conducIors on which over 80A flowin and ' ' is displayed
on Ihe LCD, sIop measuremenI immediaIely and Iake off Ihe insIrumenI
from Ihe conducIor under IesI.
#
CAUTION
Take sufficienI care noI Io apply shock, vibraIion or excessive force Io Ihe
|aw Iips.
OIherwise, precisely ad|usIed Transformer |aws will be damaed.
This insIrumenI performs self-calibraIion for abouI 8 seconds when
iI is Iurned on. ('
' is displayed on Ihe LCD.) Do noI clamp onIo
any conducIor or open Ihe |aws in Ihis period. OIherwise, inaccuraIe
measuremenI may occur.
When forein subsIances are sIuck in Ihe |aw Iips or Ihey are noI properly
enaed, Ihe Transformer |aws do noI fully close. ln such a case, do noI
release Ihe |aw Irier abrupIly or aIIempI Io close Ihe Transformer |aws by
applyin exIernal force. Make sure IhaI Ihe |aws close by Ihemselves afIer
removin Ihe forein subsIance or makin Ihem free Io move.
The size of a conducIor can be IesIed is 80mm in diameIer. AccuraIe
measuremenI cannoI be made on a conducIor larer Ihan Ihis, because Ihe
Transformer |aws cannoI fully close.
Never aIIempI Io apply excessive force Io close Ihe |aws.
When measurin lare currenI, Ihe Transformer |aws may buzz. This has no
effecI on Ihe insIrumenI's performance or safeIy.
SensiIive Transformer |aws are used for Ihis insIrumenI. Because of Ihe
characIerisIics of Transformer |aws, which can be opened and closed,
iI is impossible Io eliminaIe Ihe inIerference of exIernal maneIic field
compleIely. lf Ihere are someIhin, which eneraIin lare maneIic field, aI
a nearby siIe, currenI value can be displayed (0`may noI be displayed)
before clampin on Ihe conducIor. For such a case, please use Ihe
insIrumenI aI a locaIion far from Ihe Ihin, which eneraIin maneIic field.
Followin are Ihe Iypical Ihins eneraIin maneIic field.
