Hello Peter: I downloaded the TOS3200 manual to better understand your problem.
When the TOS3200 is in "meter mode," the terminals A-B comprise an ammeter (without the body impedance network). This will yield a higher current than in the TC (touch current) mode. I'm not sure if A-B can have the body impedance network switched in, although this is implied in Figure 4-11. For a two-wire (double-insulated) product, there is no earth wire so you cannot use the outlet for the measurement. You must use the A-B terminals. The connections to a two-wire product are shown in "b" of Figure 4-7. Hope this helps.
