Leakage Current Clamp: PeakTech P 1635
What it is
The PeakTech P 1635 is a leakage current clamp for measuring both AC and DC currents. The instrument is designed for non-contact current measurement over single conductors via a clamp opening that accommodates conductors up to 18 mm in diameter. The display is a backlit LCD with a maximum reading of 2400 counts.What it measures and how
The PeakTech P 1635 uses a Hall effect sensor for AC and DC measurements. The measurement capability is divided into two ranges with the following resolution and accuracy, as stated by the manufacturer:- DC current: 0…2 A with 1 mA resolution (accuracy ±(2.8% + 8 digits)) and 2…80 A with 100 mA resolution.
- AC current: 0…2 A with 1 mA resolution (accuracy ±(3.0% + 8 digits)) and 2…80 A with 100 mA resolution.
Functions and operation
User functions include measurement value hold (HOLD) with backlight, zero adjustment for DC measurements (ZERO), automatic shutdown after approx. 7 minutes of inactivity, as well as polarity and battery status indication. The unit is powered by 2 x 1.5 V AAA batteries. See datasheet from the manufacturerSpecifications
