Applications

This versatile clamp meter can be used for a variety of purposes. In general electronics, you might use it to check for energized circuits and balanced loads, or to capture motor in-rush current readings. However, it is also desinged with HVAC equipment readings in mind. This clampmeter can use its MAX/MIN recording in the temperature mode to assess efficiency, and further analyse both temperature and voltage data with the timestamp function. It is also able to measure flame safegaurd device current draw, and can provide an insulation test up to 100MΩ.
