While most electricians prefer multimeters as their go-to troubleshooting tool for quick current and voltage measurements, some individuals, particularly those who work with high current electrical equipment and installations, don’t go to work without a clamp meter in their pocket. The benefits of the latter are obvious, the chief ones being the ability to measure current without breaking the circuit.
Metrel has several clamp meters in its product portfolio, differing mainly in the jaw size and highest current they can measure and advanced functionalities some of them have. These include the ability to measure both AC and DC current (with additional test probes), temperature (with additional temperature probe) and 3-phase power and energy.
