I.Brief Introduction
ETCR8000 series Current/Leakage Monitoring Recorder is well designed and manufactured for online measurement, monitoring and recording of AC leakage / current. It is composed of a tester, monitoring software, current clamp and communication cable, etc. This instrument has been widely applied in many fields, such as electrical power, telecommunication, meteorology, railway, oil fields, construction, metering, research agencies, universities, mines and enterprises.
Both Chinese and English MMI is built in the instrument. Therefore, it is suitable for use by engineers and technicians of different counties. The instrument has a large LCD display with blue background and a large storage space. 4200 sets of data can be stored in the instrument. In addition, the instrument can automatically store data at an interval, which is adjustable from 1 to 60 min.
ETCR leakage/current monitor software provides online and real-time monitoring and historical data inquiry. With the software developed by our technical department, the instrument can display leakage current dynamically, display current waveform, maximum value, minimum value and average value.
The users can preset the alarm limit. The instrument will generate an alarm when the measured current exceeds the limit. In addition, the users can read, inquire, store, analyze, process, sequence historical data and generate and print a fitting curve and report.
The current clamp is made of a special alloy, adopts the latest CT technique and magnetic shielding technique and is not almost interfered by external magnetic field. This ensures high accuracy, high stability and high reliability of the values which are measured continuously.
The Leakage/Current Monitor Recorder is suitable for measuring AC lines up to AC600V. With the instrument, the users can easily find out the cause of insulation fault and circuits with an insulation fault, monitor intermittent electric leakage, find out the time when an insulation fault occurs and repair lines.

It is impossible to recover the deleted data. Take care to delete any data.
The deletion operation will delete all of the stored data.
8. Leakage/current measurement
Electric shock, dangerous ! The instrument can be operated only by the trained and authorized person. The operators must keep to the safety rules strictly; otherwise, electric shock will result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Don not use the instrument to measure the lines with a voltage of higher than 600V and current of higher than
20A, Otherwise, electric shock will result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.
-10-
1) Connect the current clamp with the instrument body properly, turn on the instrument and enter the measurement mode.
2) Clamp the measured object with the current clamp (ensure that the clamp end should be fully closed). Observe the reading. If an OL symbol is displayed on the instrument LCD, the measured current exceeds the upper measurement limit of the instrument.
3) Reference legend:
In order to measure the leakage current of an electrical equipment, clamp the phase line and neutral
line. (take care to clamp the two lines)
In order to measure the leakage current of a ground conductor, clamp the ground conductor. (take care to
clamp only one conductor)
In order to measure the total current of a main line, clamp this main line. (Take care to clamp only one line).
For the sake of safety, remove the instrument away from the conductor with high voltage and current after measurement has been completed correctly.

9. Real-time Monitoring
Turn on the instrument and enter the measurement state. Connect a PC with the instrument via a RS232 communication cable supplied with the instrument. Run the software installed in the PC. If the communication is normal, the users can monitor current in real-time manner via the PC.
10. Data Download
Connect the instrument with the PC via the RS232 communication cable
(supplied with the instrument) and turn on the instrument. Run software, select the Historical Inquiry and read the data. The more the data is, longer time it takes to read them. If the instrument memory is full, it takes about
2min to read all data.

VII. How to operate the monitor software
ETCR Leakage/Current Monitoring software needs to be installed in
Windows XP/2000 systems. The monitor software provides online and real-time monitoring and historical data inquiry. With the ETCR software, the instrument can display current dynamically, display current waveform, maximum value, minimum value and average value. The users can preset the alarm limit. The instrument will generate an alarm when the measured current exceeds the limit. In addition, the users can read, inquire, store, analyze, process, sequence historical data and generate and print a fitting curve and report. The following paragraphs will describe these functions briefly.
