Making a Current Measurement

You can measure current in both Scope mode and Meter mode. Scope mode has the advantage of two waveforms being displayed while you perform measurements.

Meter mode has the advantage of high measurement resolution.

The next example explains a typical current measurement in Meter mode.

Warning

Carefully read the instructions about the current probe you are using.

To set up the test tool, do the following:

1Connect a current probe (e.g. i400, optional) from the 4-mm banana jack outputs to the conductor to be measured.

Ensure that the red and black probe connectors correspond to the red and black banana jack inputs. (See Figure 13.)

2 Display the METER key labels.
