Introducing the RS PRO RS-5302 Handheld Digital Multimeter, designed with a Kelvin Small Resistance Measurement feature. This is an ideal multimeter that has the ability to measure capacitance, voltage, and electrical current, with the added benefit of being able to take precision low-value resistance measurements. It offers a robust and compact design, allowing for portability and protection from harsh working environments. A high-quality RS PRO digital multimeter like this is an essential addition to any engineer’s or technician’s test and measurement kit for accurate and reliable results.

A digital multimeter or DMM is an essential test tool that measures electrical values such as voltage, current, and resistance. A DMM is used as a standard diagnostics tool or device by technicians and electrical engineers in the following areas:

• Electrical and electronics industries


• Cable installation


• Construction


• Industrial manufacturing

The main difference is the display. A digital multimeter will show the results as numbers on a screen (usually an LED or LCD screen) whereas the analogue version has a needle to show the value.

Accurate and reliable measurement of low-value resistance is very important, especially when testing or completing diagnostics on cables that will be carrying significant current, or dependability is required, for example in medical or military applications. Faulty low-resistance connections have the potential to cause a fire or explosion, which is why the Kelvin method of testing is used. This RS PRO multimeter provides an incredibly sensitive method of testing that can detect faulty crimps, bad solder joins, stress-damaged wires and much more that could cause a lot of damage should they fail if they go undetected.

RS PRO is our own brand range and brings you a wide range of high-quality, great value products offering you more choice. Trusted by engineers all over the world, every part of every RS PRO product has been rigorously tested against demanding industry standards

When using any electrical test equipment, it is advised that you refer to the user’s manual for proper working operating procedures and safety precautions in order to avoid potential safety hazards.
