Product type
A clamp meter is a type of electrical testing instrument used to measure current flowing through a conductor without the need to disconnect it. It features a hinged jaw that can be clamped around a wire to measure the magnetic field generated by the current. Clamp meters are typically constructed with durable plastic and metal components, ensuring reliability in various environments. They are widely used in electrical maintenance, troubleshooting, and installation tasks.

When selecting a clamp meter, consider the maximum current rating and whether you need AC, DC, or both types of measurements. Look for features such as data logging, Bluetooth connectivity, and additional functions like voltage and resistance measurement. Specify any required certifications or standards, such as CAT ratings for safety, and ensure the meter meets your specific application needs. Quantities may vary based on project requirements.
