AC/DC current and leakage current, without breaking the circuit

Clamp Meters, Current Probes / Sensors

Current measured by putting a jaw around a conductor, including leakage current in the milliamp range on a cable carrying hundreds of amps.

What this group is for

Written as engineering fact. Nothing on this page states a specification the manufacturer has not supplied.

  • No disconnection: the measurement happens on a running system, which is usually the only system available.

  • Leakage current resolution fine enough to find the branch responsible, on a conductor carrying load current thousands of times larger.

  • AC and DC current, including on drives and battery systems where DC content is the problem.

  • Sensors that pair with recorders and analyzers, so the clamp becomes an input to a longer measurement.

Highlighted models

Model data to be supplied

Specific Clamp Meters, Current Probes / Sensors models are quoted against the application, because the right one depends on the range you need to resolve and the conditions on site.

Tell us what you are measuring and we will name the models that cover it, with the ranges and accuracy classes written out in full.

Where it is used

Four situations this group is bought for, and the points on a real installation where it is connected.

  • Locating the source of earth leakage on a distribution board.
  • Load and balance checks on live circuits.
  • Current input for power loggers, analyzers and recorders.
  • DC current measurement on battery systems and drives.

Typical measurement locations

What has to be true inside the company

Four criteria of innovation, and the reason a measurement can be trusted outside it.

Increasing customer value

Production system

A production system built so that a measurement need turns into a delivered, calibrated instrument without the customer absorbing the delay.

Delivering peace of mind to customers

After-sales service

An instrument is only as good as the number it still reports in year five. After-sales service exists to keep that number trustworthy.

Pursuing productivity and precision

Manufacturing capabilities

Precision is a manufacturing capability before it is a specification. It is held in the process, not promised in the catalog.

Creating new customer value

Collaborative development of new products

When a field has no instrument for the quantity it needs to see, the instrument gets developed with the customer who needs it.
