Connection
2-pole adapter, clamp and probe are connected.
Set Parameters at Tester
q Measuring range (test current selection):
1 k (40 mA), 100 (0.4 A), 10 (3.7 ... 7 A)
In the case of systems with RCCBs, the DC + functions
can be selected (only in the 10 range and only with the
METRAFLEX P300).
q Connection type: 2-pole adapter + clamp
After parameter selection: automatic setting to 10 measuring
range and 1 V/A or 1000 mV/A transformer ratio
q Contact voltage: UL < 25 V, < 50 V, < 65 V, see section 5.7 re-
garding freely selectable voltage.
q Test current waveshape:
Sinusoidal (full-wave), DC offset and positive half-wave
q System type: TN/TT, IT
q Current clamp sensor transformation ratio: see table below

Important Instructions for Use of the Current Clamp Sensor
Use only the METRAFLEX P300 or the Z3512A current clamp
sensor for this measurement.
Read and adhere to the operating instructions for the
METRAFLEX P300 current clamp sensor, as well as the safety
precautions included therein.
•Observe direction of current flow (see arrow on the current
clamp sensor).
•Use the clamp in the permanently connected state. The sensor
may not be moved during measurement.
The current clamp sensor may only be used at an adequate
distance from powerful extraneous fields.
Before use, always inspect the electronics housing, the con-
nector cable and the current sensor for damage.
