Klein Tools CL220 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What current range does this 400 amp clamp meter measure?
This digital clamp meter measures AC current up to 400 amps with auto-ranging functionality. It automatically selects the appropriate measurement range for accurate readings across the full spectrum.
2) Can this meter measure temperature and what range does it cover?
Yes, this clamp meter includes temperature measurement capability. The exact temperature range varies by model, but most professional-grade units measure from -40°F to over 1000°F using the included temperature probe.
3) What wire sizes can fit through the clamp jaw opening?
The clamp jaw opening typically accommodates conductors up to 1.2 inches in diameter. This allows measurement of most residential and commercial wiring, including multiple conductors or larger gauge wire.
4) Does this meter measure both AC voltage and resistance?
Most digital clamp meters in this class measure AC voltage up to 600V and resistance values. Check the specific model specifications to verify voltage ranges and resistance measurement capabilities for your applications.
5) How do I properly clamp around a conductor for accurate readings?
Center the single conductor within the clamp jaw opening. Ensure the jaw closes completely and the conductor passes through the center of the opening. Avoid clamping around multiple hot conductors simultaneously as this can cancel readings.
6) What safety category rating should I look for in electrical work?
For electrical work, look for CAT III or CAT IV safety ratings. These ratings indicate the meter can safely handle transient voltages in distribution and installation environments. Always verify the specific safety rating before use.
7) Are test leads included with this clamp meter?
Most digital clamp meters include basic test leads and a temperature probe. Some models may include additional accessories like a carrying case or instruction manual. Check the product specifications for included accessories.
8) How do I zero or calibrate the meter before taking measurements?
Close the clamp jaw around no conductor and press the zero or relative button if available. This removes any residual offset from the readings. Some auto-ranging meters automatically zero when powered on with an open jaw.
9) What type of battery does this meter typically use?
Digital clamp meters commonly use 9V batteries or AA batteries depending on the model. Battery life varies with usage but typically provides hundreds of hours of operation. Low battery indicators alert when replacement is needed.
10) Can this meter detect current in cables or conduit?
The clamp can measure current through individual insulated conductors within cables. However, clamping around complete cables with both hot and neutral conductors will show zero or minimal reading due to current cancellation.
11) How accurate are the current measurements on this auto-ranging meter?
Professional digital clamp meters typically provide accuracy within 2-3% of reading plus a few digits. Auto-ranging ensures optimal resolution across the measurement range. Accuracy can be affected by conductor position within the jaw opening.
