Thanks!

Sure thing!

I got the same with other brands..I wish to understand what's wrong..

Thnks! Yes it's measuring.

Right..not working with AC..mine is not working in DC..again..so I'll take a look this days and verify the AC too..

Hi im also having this kind of problem.. any solution

Bought are for amps, if you move one , you have compensated from the other until a sweet spot. But if you have bad readings, try to reset to zero from the right button under the dial. It needs to set to zero before measuring currents.

Yep! It takes time to calibrate it..for having better measurements under low currents just wrap a wire around the claw ..if you do 10 turns the measurement it's magnifying 10X..

I didn't checked for AC..my goal was DC..I use both trimmers..be patience.

I will..this days and let you know.I was focused to DC clamp for my solar installation..

I don't have positioning in my mind..it shouldn't make any difference as long is inside the loop..of course I don't expect much precision for low current measurements..this is a 1000 A! The problem was the difference when changing the polarity of the cable..now it's fixed and behave..

@@viocaia easily verified by watching the readings as you move the wire around in the opening. If it doesn't change at all then theory meets practice-

@@hwingerrr5680 I'll do test video about this..good idea..probably in this video I've been cutting/editing to much and values jumps to fast...we'll see.Thanks for idea!

So just secure a cable with helping hands and then create some kind of jig that shows you exactly where to line up your clamp meter? You could just use a few pieces of wood that the top and sides of the clamp fit in. Open the meter away from the jig, get the wire in the middle, and then slide the clamp down so it fits in your jig. I guess you could just trace the outline of your clamp on a piece of wood and have a hole in the middle for your wire to run through. Have the piece of wood raised up a couple inches so the wire can run out the bottom and build an arm on the back of the wood so you have the arm sticking out to the middle of the wood to be able to secure your wire to the end of that arm. Would take 5-10 min to make that jig Doubling the wire wouldn’t be possible because it would mess up the consistency of your clamps location and the wires location in the jig but that’s fine I think we just want to control the variable of wire location within clamp. - | | --- That would be the wood with your outline on the bottom and the arm. Run the wire through a hole in the middle of the bottom piece and then do the same with the arm or just use a cable clamp of some kind at the end of the arm if it lines up well with the hole

As long as it reads correctly should be fine

@@viocaia it did not, but I figured it out, bottom pot adjusts starting amperage.

DCA measurements always impacted by the residual magnetism of the jaws. That's why, a zero set switch comes as the rescue. If you see any significant values before testing, just press zero set. and start the measurements only after that.

Thnaks! @@shossain8629

@@shossain8629 absolutely RIGHT!
