The Klein Tools CL700 is an outstanding digital clamp - meter. It uses automatically ranging true root mean squared (TRMS) technology, which greatly boosts measurement accuracy. With its clamp, you can easily measure AC current. The test - leads are versatile, capable of measuring AC/DC voltage, resistance, continuity, frequency, and capacitance, as well as testing diodes. A thermocouple probe allows for temperature measurement. One of its key features is the Low Impedance (LoZ) mode. This mode helps you quickly identify and get rid of ghost or stray voltages, a real time - saver in complex electrical environments. Klein Tools designed this test and measurement product line specifically for electricians. Years of on - site research and input from American electricians have made this meter full of innovative and time - saving features. The package includes a carrying case for easy transport, a set of test leads, a thermocouple with an adapter, and three AAA batteries. It has a high - level safety rating of CAT IV 600V, CAT III 1000V, Class 2, and double insulation. Built to withstand a 6.6 - Foot (2 m) drop, it's durable. The low battery indicator alerts you when it's time to change batteries, and the battery compartment is easily accessible. It meets the requirements for use in basic and controlled electromagnetic environments such as residential, office, and light - industrial locations. The operating temperature ranges from 32 - degrees F to 104 - degrees F (0 - degrees C to 40 - degrees C), and it can operate at an altitude up to 6562 - Foot (2000 m).
Using the Klein CL700 is easy. To measure AC current, simply open the clamp and place it around the conductor. For measuring AC/DC voltage, resistance, continuity, frequency, capacitance, or testing diodes, connect the test - leads to the appropriate points. To measure temperature, attach the thermocouple probe. When using the Low Impedance (LoZ) mode, make sure you're in an environment where ghost or stray voltages might be an issue. Always check the battery level using the low battery indicator. If the batteries are low, open the easily accessible battery compartment and replace the three AAA batteries. When not in use, store the meter in the provided carrying case. Keep it in a dry place within the operating temperature range of 32 - degrees F to 104 - degrees F (0 - degrees C to 40 - degrees C). Avoid dropping the meter as it's only built to withstand a 6.6 - Foot (2 m) drop. Regularly check the test - leads and thermocouple probe for any signs of damage. If you notice any issues, stop using the meter and have it checked by a professional.
