Multimeters are devices that measure multiple electrical values including voltage (volts), current (amps), and resistance (ohms). They are considered an essential tool for diagnosing issues, testing circuits, and ensuring electrical safety in electrical components and circuits. 

Our comprehensive range of multimeters have been chosen for their high-quality components and accuracy, sourced from leading brands in the industry. Browse our range today which includes [Fluke Multimeters](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4294966303), Keysight Multimeters and our own [RS PRO Multimeters](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4291471876) and find your ideal multimeter solution.

### Types of multimeters
- [Analogue Multimeters](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4294865675) - relatively simple to use, but have limited features and functions and uses a needle scale to show their reading, As the needle can move due to fluctuations caused by the flow of the electricity, the needle on the device will move over time.
- [Digital Multimeters](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4294813098) (DMMs) - come in various forms including handheld, benchtop, and clamp meter versions, each catering to specific measurement requirements. They have a numeric LCD display which is easy to read and have become more popular as technology has advanced, as they have the ability to measure with greater accuracy.
- [Bench Multimeters](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4294352970) - more suitable for the workshop and laboratory-based engineers and technicians who need a reliable instrument for maintenance, test, or repair tasks
- [Handheld](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/multimeters-accessories/multimeters/?applied-dimensions=4294352986) - portable and convenient devices that are easy to carry and operate in tight spaces or on the go.
- [Clamp Meter](https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/electrical-test-measurement/clamp-meters/) - has functionality of a multimeter bur uses the clamp like jaws which can open and close around a conductor to measure current without disconnecting wires or breaking circuits, saving time and ensuring safety.

### Multimeters typical applications

Multimeters are used across a range of industries, environments and applications, including electronics testing, domestic, commercial, and industrial electrical wiring installation, and automotive servicing.

**Checks performed by multimeters include:**

- AC or DC voltages
- Resistance
- Continuity of electrical components
- Current in circuits
- Diode testing
- Some advance models may measure frequency, temperature, capacitance and have True RMS voltage and current readings
- Auto-ranging capabilities which automatically selects the measurement range
