HT Instruments HT96U AC Leakage Current Clamp Adapter, Selectable 1A/100A/1000A Ranges, 1V AC Output, 54mm Jaw Opening 1003560

Electricians and maintenance technicians use the HT96U to measure AC leakage and load currents without breaking the circuit. The clamp adapter converts the measured current into a safe 1V AC signal for direct connection to a multimeter or data logger.

Key specifications

• Current ranges: 1A, 100A, 1000A AC, selectable
• Output signal: 1V AC full scale for each range
• Accuracy: ±(1.0% rdg + 5 dgt) on 1A range; ±(0.5% rdg + 5 dgt) on 100A and 1000A ranges
• Frequency response: 40 Hz to 500 Hz
• Maximum conductor diameter: 54 mm
• Safety rating: CAT III 600V, CAT II 1000V
• Output connection: 4mm safety banana plugs, 2 m cable
• Passive operation, no battery required

Why choose it

The HT96U offers three selectable ranges for precise measurements from milliamps to 1000A. Its passive design eliminates battery concerns, and the 54mm jaw accommodates large conductors. The 1V AC output is compatible with standard multimeters and recorders.

Ideal use cases

• Leakage current testing in industrial and residential installations
• Load current monitoring without circuit interruption
• Data logging with compatible instruments

Good to know

The adapter is a current clamp, not a standalone meter. It requires a measuring device with AC voltage input. The output ratios are 1mV/mA (1A range), 10mV/A (100A range), and 1mV/A (1000A range).
