772/773
Milliamp Process Clamp Meter
Instruction Sheet
Introduction
The hand-held, battery-operated Fluke 772 and 773 Milliamp Process
Clamp Meters (the Meter) can be used in troubleshooting transmitters,
valves, PLC and DCS I/O. Unlike conventional clamp meters, the Meter
features a remote jaw that is connected to the main body via extension
cable.

Read First: Safety Information
To ensure safe operation and service of the Meter, follow
these instructions:
•
Read the Instruction Sheet before use and follow all
safety instructions.
•
Use the Meter only as specified in the Instruction
Sheet; otherwise, the Meter's safety features may be
impaired.
•
Before each use, inspect the Meter and cable for
damage. Look for cracks and missing portions of the
clamp and cable. Do not use if clamp is damaged.
•
Use caution when working with voltages above 33 V
rms 47 V peak or 70 V dc these voltages pose a shock
hazard.
•
Do not use to measure ac current.
•
Do not use to measure ac voltage.
•
Avoid working alone so assistance can be rendered in
an emergency.
Use extreme caution when working around bare
conductors or bus bars. Contact with the conductor
could result in electric shock.
•
To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical
shock and injury, replace the batteries as soon as the
low battery indicator
B
appears.
•
Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual
protective equipment must be used to prevent shock
and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors
are exposed.
•
When measuring, keep fingers behind the Tactile
Barrier. See Figure 1.
•
Do not use on non-insulated conductors.
•
Do not use near strong magnetic fields.
•
Remove test leads before opening case.
Table 1 explains the symbols that are used on the Meter or in this
Instruction Sheet.
