however formaximum accuracythe tips of the jaws
should be in contact with one another.
For maximum accuracy,the conductor under test
shouldbe positioned inthe centreof the internaljaw
area.
5.1.3 The AC current flowing throughthe conductor is
recordedon the LCD displayand is continuously
updated to reflect any changes in theconductor current.
If the batterysymbolisvisibleonthe LCD display
then the current reading must be assumed to be
incorrectsince the batteryrequires replacing.
