Connection between the Current Probe and Digital
Meter
Connect the BNC connector of the RP1001C current probe and the
input terminal of the digital meter using the BNC-to-banana plug
adapter provided with the accessories.
To measure only AC current, select the AC volts of the meter. To
measure DC current, select the DC volts of the meter, and adjust
the probe output to the proper DC offset. When connecting the
current under test, please note the current convention arrow on
the test clamp to get the proper polarity reading.
Note: To increase the measurement sensitivity of the RP1001C
current probe, loop additional turns of the wire under test through
the test clamp. The sensitivity of the RP1001C current probe is
multiplied times the number of loops in the test clamp, for
example, 10 mV/A X 4 turns = 40 mV/A.
