Frequently Asked Questions - CL320 Klein Tools

How to measure alternating current with the clamp?
Turn the rotary switch to the 40/400 A position. Open the clamp by pressing the trigger and place it around a single conductor. Close the clamp completely and read the value on the screen. For currents below 40 A, select the 4 A position for better resolution.
How to use the non-contact voltage test (NCV)?
Press and hold the SEL/NCV button to activate NCV mode. Bring the antenna (located at the top of the device) close to the conductor to be tested. If an AC voltage of at least 40 V is present, the red LED flashes, an audible signal sounds, and bars appear on the screen.
What to do if the screen displays 'OL'?
OL means 'Over Limit'. This indicates that the measurement exceeds the selected range or the circuit is open (in continuity, resistance). Check that you are using the correct measurement range and that the connections are correct.
How to change the batteries?
First disconnect the test leads from any voltage source. Loosen the screw of the battery compartment, remove the cover, replace the three AAA batteries observing polarity, then close and tighten the screw.
How to disable the auto power-off?
Auto power-off is enabled by default after 10 minutes of inactivity. To disable it, turn off the device (OFF position), then press and hold the SELECT button while turning the rotary switch to a measurement position. The auto power-off icon disappears from the screen.
How to measure temperature?
Connect a type K thermocouple to the COM (black) and VΩμA (red) jacks, respecting polarity. Turn the rotary switch to °F°C. By default, the unit is in °F; press SEL to switch to °C. Place the probe on the object to measure and wait for stabilization.
What is the maximum voltage that the device can measure?
The maximum measurable voltage is 600 V AC or DC. Never exceed this limit to avoid risk of electric shock or damage to the device.
How to measure circuit continuity?
Turn the rotary switch to the Ω (continuity/resistance/capacitance/diode) position. By default, continuity mode is active (sound wave icon). De-energize the circuit, then connect the test leads to the two points to be tested. If the resistance is less than 10 Ω, an audible signal sounds.
How to use MAX/MIN mode?
Press the MAX/MIN button during a measurement. The multimeter records the maximum and minimum values. Press repeatedly to display MAX, MIN, or the difference (MAX-MIN). To exit, press and hold the button for more than two seconds.
What to do if the device does not turn on?
First check that the batteries are properly installed and that they are charged. If the low battery indicator appears, replace the batteries. If the problem persists, contact Klein Tools customer service at 1 800 553-4676.

- Use only with CAT III or CAT IV rated test leads.

- Ensure meter leads are fully seated, and keep fingers away from the metal probe contacts when making measurements.

- Use caution when working with voltages above 25V AC RMS or 60V DC. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.

- To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock, replace batteries when a low battery indicator appears.

- Do not attempt to measure resistance or continuity on a live circuit.

- Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use personal protective equipment to prevent shock and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors are exposed.

- To avoid risk of electric shock, disconnect leads from any voltage source before removing battery door.

- To avoid risk of electric shock, do not operate meter while battery door is removed.

⚠️ WARNINGS - NCV FUNCTION

- When NCV Function is initiated, a blinking or steady red glow and an audible beep indicate voltage present. If no indication, voltage could still be present.

- Before and after each use of the NCVT, verify operation by testing a known working circuit that is within the rating of this unit.

- Never assume neutral or ground wires are de-energized. Neutrals in multi-wire branch circuits may be energized when disconnected and must be retested before handling.

• The NCV tester WILL NOT detect voltage if:

- The wire is shielded.

- The operator is not grounded or is otherwise isolated from an effective earth ground.

- The voltage is DC.

• The NCV tester MAY NOT detect voltage if:

• The user is not holding the tester.

- The user is insulated from the tester with a glove or other materials.

• The wire is partially buried or in a grounded metal conduit.

- The tester is at a distance from the voltage source.

- The field created by the voltage source is blocked, dampened, or otherwise interfered with.

- The frequency of the voltage is not a perfect sine wave between 50 and 500Hz.

- The tester is outside of operation conditions (listed in Specifications section).

- Operation may be affected by differences in socket design and insulation thickness and type; tester may not be compatible with some types of standard or tamper resistant (TR) electrical outlets.

- Do not apply to uninsulated hazardous live conductors.

- Detection above 50V is specified under “normal” conditions as specified below. The tester may detect at a different threshold at different conditions, or may not detect at all unless:

- The tip of the tester is within 0.25" of an AC voltage source radiating unimpeded.
