1/ PRESENTATION

The PAC 10 current clamp measures DC or AC currents, without opening
the circuit they are flowing in. The current clamp is used as an accessory
for multimeters, recorders, etc.
This clamp measures DC currents up to 600 A and AC currents up to 400
A rms (600 A peak). It outputs the form and amplitude of the current
measured as a voltage image of the primary current.
The PAC 10 has one range, 400 A (sensitivity 1 mV/A), a zero adjust
rotative button,and one light indicator for power supply.
