How to measure using a clamp meter?
For measuring current using a clamp meter, clamp one conductor (wire) to be measured. If two wires (parallel lines) are clamped, current measurement cannot be made. Take a measurement at the center of the core of the clamped portion to minimize measuring errors. A line separator is conveniently used in measuring the consumption current of the home electric appliances. There are line separators that can amplify measured current 10 times to allow measurement by amplifying current lower than 1A. When DC current (DCA) is measured using a clamp meter for DC current, the current is indicated in a negative value (-) when the direction of the current is reversed. By using this function, you can know whether your car battery is at the state of charge or discharge.
