Kyoritsu 2300R True RMS AC/DC Fork Current Tester 100A
The Kyoritsu KEW 2300R is a sleek, fork-shaped current tester engineered to simplify measurements in confined or crowded electrical panels. Its open-jaw design lets technicians slide the tester around individual conductors without breaking circuits or wrestling with bulky clamps. Utilizing True RMS processing, it delivers accurate readings on both AC and DC currents up to 100 A even when waveforms are distorted by inverters or non-linear loads.
Beyond current measurement, the 2300R integrates a non-contact voltage (NCV) detector: by bringing its fork sensor near a live conductor, you instantly verify the presence of AC voltage without direct contact. The intuitive rotary selector and a single “zero-adjust” button streamline setup for DC zeroing or range changes, while Auto Power Off and Data Hold functions help conserve battery and capture fleeting readings. Housed in over-molded, pocket-friendly plastic, the instrument meets CAT III 300 V safety standards, offering peace of mind in industrial, commercial, or residential environments.
Supplied with a durable carrying case and powered by two AAA batteries, the KEW 2300R balances portability with professional-grade performance, making it ideal for electricians, maintenance crews, and field technicians who demand both speed and precision.
Features:
- Measures AC and DC currents up to 100 A without opening or closing jaws.
- True RMS reading for accurate AC measurements under distorted waveforms.
- Fork-shaped sensor for probing tight spaces and crowded cable runs.
- NCV (Non-Contact Voltage) detection with audible “Hi” alert.
- One-touch Zero Adjust for DC zero-offset calibration.
- Data Hold function on ACA/DCA ranges.
- Auto Power Off to conserve battery life.
- Pocket-size, over-molded housing for improved grip and durability.
- Supplied carrying case as standard accessory.
- Conforms to IEC 61010-2-032 CAT III 300 V safety standards.
