Care And Cleaning; Technical Data - VOLTCRAFT VC-523 Bedienungsanleitung

• If you use a multimeter for voltage measurement proceed in the following order:
- Connect the safety measuring cables to the digital-multimeter according to the instruction
manual.
- Use only suitable safety measuring cables.
- Open the cover of the measuring adapter and plug the measuring cables into the sockets
on which you want to measure a voltage.
• Remove the current clamp from the measuring chamber and the plugs of the safety measur-
ing cables from the measuring sockets after carrying out all measurements. Close the cover
for the measuring sockets.
• Remove the measuring adapter from the power line.
Note
• Appliance and lamp power cords have two insulated wire conductors: the hot or live con-
ductor and the neutral and ground conductors.
• Installing a clamp meter around both conductors will result in a reading of approximately
zero amps because the current flowing through the live or hot wire will effectively cancel out
the current flowing back through the neutral and ground wires.
• The adaptor "separates" the hot from the neutral and ground conductors, eliminating the
need to physically separate the wires on the power cord.
• The line splitter increases the current reading by X10 allowing higher resolution when meas-
uring low current.
• Divide the current measurement shown on the clamp meter display by 10.

Care and cleaning

• Apart from the occasional cleaning the adapter is maintenance free.
• Disconnect the product from the mains before each cleaning.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as
they can cause damage to the housing and malfunctioning.
• Clean the product with a dry, fibre-free cloth.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the house-
hold waste. At the end of its service life, dispose of the product in accordance with
applicable regulatory guidelines.
You thus fulfill your statutory obligations and contribute to the protection of the envi-
ronment.
