Current Clamps
In the field of engineering, current clamps are electrical devices having two jaws which open to allow clamping around an electrical conductor. This allows properties of the electric current in the conductor to be measured, absolutely no physical contact. On our website you will find current clamps that are ideal for measuring AC or DC voltage. Current clamps are irreplaceable for inspection work and maintenance. We offer the following: voltage detectors, voltage leak detectors, voltage power detectors, metric detectors, current detectors and more. These high quality current clamps include the capacity to measure many other parameters, such as capacity, resistance, power (both by way of clamps or by means of a hand held digital device with external clamps with a range of one or three stages). The high variety of classy products (especially our current clamps) within our product range is the main and best reason why many professional like tool makers, electricians and other craftsmen trust in our instruments. Current clamps serve as a form of personal protection for builders on the building site, which means that they can be sure that there are no electric leads. They would put the builder in highest danger. Furthermore our current clamps are also manufactured for do-it-yourself enthusiasts that can not wait for an electrician to come and get the job done. The current clamps are like the majority of our measurement instruments: they meet and excel ISO standards. This calibration is done in a laboratory and comes with an accompanying certificate. All of our current clamps can perform the demanding tasks in each industrial sector regardless of the technical problem you encounter. If you can't find the current clamps you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution to suit your needs by calling our offices on: +44 (0)2380 987030 and our technical staff will advise you regarding our measuring instruments. Our engineers and technicians will be happy to help you with the current clamps, and of course, with the other products in the field of regulation and control, and scales and balances.

General information about current clamps: They are measuring devices to indirectly determine currents. Whereas with direct measurement the electric circuit must be broken to place ammeters in series, disrupting the circuit, this process isn't necessary if you measure indirectly using current clamps. This is because it measures the magnetic effect of the electricity field around the wire or conductor. As you open the current sensor jaws, it's possible to enclose the electrical cable without having to interrupt the circuit. This permits the measurement of installations that you are not able to disconnect. Another advantage is the galvanized insulation, allowing for the product to have a longer life. The signal is, in comparison to the measured value, completely independent from the power. All our current clamps can also come with an ISO 9000 laboratory calibration certificate, this is especially interesting for companies that wish to incorporate these current clamps into their quality control system or who wish to have an annual recalibration. The ISO certificate includes calibration in a laboratory and a test certificate with all the measurement values. In this way, you can always be sure about the quality and reliability of our current clamps. As you can see in the specification we have many different features included in our instruments. Many of them include software, storage facilities and different interfaces. These three attributes make it easy for the user to store, transfer and analyze the data on your computer. Our software is running on most Windows operating systems. Sometimes it is very comfortable for the user to be able to make long-time measurements and with our gadgets you are able to safe that data on the computer even though there is already an internal storage facility in most of our current-measuring-devices. In case this is filled with data you can simply save it to your PC and with the help of the software you will easily be able to analyze the transferred data.
