Measurement current clamp for currents of up to 600 amperes for both AC (400MHz) and DC currents, includes a "low battery" indicator with a 4mm banana plug. The PP179 and PP266 current clamps are ideal for use with a PicoScope automotive oscilloscope to display starter current waveforms, charging currents and for performing quick compression tests (see waveforms below).
The current clamp can measure up to 600 A (AC or DC). In use there is no need to break into the circuit or disturb the isolation as the opening jaws simply clamp around the current carrying conductor. No electrical contact is required.
NOTE: The PP179 comes with a 4mm banana plug so it can not be connected directly to the PicoScope. It is recommended to use the TA000 or the TA020 to connect the current clamp to the oscilloscope. Alternatively, the PP266 600A power clamp with BNC connector is available.
