Description
The PR1200X current probe has been designed for use in low current, leakage current and differential current measurement applications for use with earth leakage detectors, multimeters, recorders and power analysers for accurate non intrusive measurement of AC current. Using the latest transformer technology, the PR1200X can measure currents from 1 mA to 1200 A for which it give a proportional current output.

The probe complies with the safety standards EN 61010-2-032 for input and output circuits, ensuring safe protection when using equipment with floating inputs.

Applications
All AC current measurement applications up to 1200 ARMS continuous and on uninsulated conductors up to 600 VRMS (see safety section)

Enhanced protection against short circuits

- The "cover" over the jaw opening mechanism totally protects the jaws avoiding all accidental contact with the uninsulated conductors, as well as added protection against mechanical damage.

- A second patented safety feature called "SIAC" (Safety Internal Anti Short Circuit), which is for internal safety against short-circuits. This system maintains a safety space on the lower internal aperture of the jaws during their closing to prevent potential short circuits.

With SIAC system there is no need for the usual protection at the tip of the jaws. This provides easy access for the current probe where space is restricted and ensures the jaw faces are kept clean and free of debris for accurate measurements.
