Part No. 3288-20
Dense panels and packed conduit runs can make ordinary clamp meters difficult to use. The Hioki 3288-20 addresses this with a slim 10 mm double-jaw design that can reach into tight spaces while providing True-RMS AC and DC current measurement up to 1000 A.
The meter also measures AC/DC voltage up to 600 V, along with resistance and continuity, giving technicians one instrument for a range of routine electrical checks. Its True-RMS measurement helps provide accurate readings on non-sinusoidal waveforms commonly encountered with variable-speed drives and switching power supplies.
The 3288-20 features a no-metal-exposure jaw design and carries CAT III 600 V and CAT III 300 V safety ratings for current and voltage measurement respectively. Its slim jaw profile makes it suitable for working around UPS systems, motor drives and densely wired control panels.
Need a different specification? The Hioki range also includes the 3280-10F Pocket AC Current Clamp Meter, allowing you to select the model according to your measurement requirements.
