Description
The Greenlee CMGL-10 Clamp-on Ammeter and Leakage Current Detector is a hand-held
testing device with the following measurement capabilities: AC voltage, AC current, and
resistance. The unit is also intended to verify continuity.
Much more sensitive than most clamp-on ammeters, the CMGL-10 can detect very small
amounts of current that may indicate that some current is leaking to ground.
Safety
Safety is essential in the use and maintenance of Greenlee tools and equipment. This
instruction manual and any markings on the tool provide information for avoiding hazards and
unsafe practices related to the use of this tool. Observe all of the safety information provided.
Purpose
This instruction manual is intended to familiarize all personnel with the safe operation and
maintenance procedures for the Greenlee CMGL-10 Clamp-on Ammeter and Leakage Current
Detector.
Keep this manual available to all personnel.
Replacement manuals are available upon request at no charge.

Important Safety Information
Electric shock hazard:
Contact with live circuits can result in severe injury or death.
Electric shock hazard:
• Do not use the unit if it is wet or damaged.
• Use test leads or accessories that are appropriate for the application. See the
category and voltage rating of the test lead or accessory.
• Inspect the test leads or accessory before use. The item(s) must be clean and dry,
and the insulation must be in good condition.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.
Electric shock hazard:
• Do not apply more than the rated voltage between any two input terminals, or
between any input terminal and earth ground.
• Do not contact the test lead tips or any uninsulated portion of the accessory.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.
• Do not operate with the case open.
• Before opening the case, remove the test leads or jaw from the circuit and shut off
the unit.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.

Do not change the measurement function while the test leads are connected to a
component or circuit.
Failure to observe this precaution can result in injury and can damage the instrument.
• Do not attempt to repair this unit. It contains no user-serviceable parts.
• Do not expose unit to extremes in temperature or high humidity. See Specifications.
Failure to observe these precautions can result in injury and can damage the instrument.
Unless measuring voltage or current, shut off and lock out power. Make sure that all
capacitors are discharged. Voltage must not be present.
Set the selector and connect the test leads so that they correspond to the intended
measurement. Incorrect settings or connections can result in a blown fuse.
Using this unit near equipment that generates electromagnetic interference can result
in unstable or inaccurate readings.

Using the Features
Automatic Power Off To extend battery life, the meter will shut itself off after approximately
30 minutes of inactivity. The only way to restore power is to press
HOLD. To disable this feature, press HOLD while turning the meter on.
MAX/MIN Holds the minimum or maximum value on the display. Press once to
hold the minimum value; press again to hold the maximum value.
Press again to exit this mode.
ZERO Finds the difference between two measurements. While taking a
measurement, press ZERO to set the display to zero. ZERO ∆will
appear on the display. Take the second measurement. The value on the
display will be the difference between the two measurements. Press
and hold to exit this mode.
HOLD Press momentarily to hold the present value on the display. Press
again to exit this mode.
Frequency Filter Filters out unwanted harmonics and other unwanted signals, which
can interfere with measurements. To prevent this type of interference,
select the 50/60 Hz position; the filter will limit any signals that are
higher than 100 Hz.
To measure higher frequency signals, select the WIDE position.

Operation
1. Set the selector according to the Settings Table and connect the test leads to the unit.
Start with the highest measurement range.

* To measure current draw, clamp the jaw around one conductor only. The display will show
the current draw. To measure leakage, clamp the jaw around all of the conductors (except the
ground wire). Any reading other than zero amps indicates that some current is leaking to
ground. For a precise measurement of the amount of leakage, clamp the jaw around the
ground conductor only. See the illustrations under Typical Measurements.
** Tone indicates circuit resistance is less than approximately 40 Ω.
2. See Typical Measurements for illustrations of typical uses.
3. Test the unit on a known functioning circuit or component.
• If the unit does not function as expected on a known functioning circuit, replace the
batteries.
• If the unit still does not function as expected, send the unit to Greenlee for repair.
4. Take the reading from the circuit to be tested. If the resolution is not satisfactory, remove
the meter from the circuit and change to the next lower range.
