How Do You Use A Digital Clamp Multimeter?
The digital clamp multimeter or clamp-on ammeter is a complete electrical testing tool. The clamp portion of the multimeter is used for reading amperage that is flowing through an insulated conductor or wire. Typically, most digital clamp meters may not have the capability for reading ohms or resistance. They do, for the most part, have the ability to read amperage through the clamp-on device and voltage with the manufacturer-provided leads or probes. The main usage for a digital clamp multimeter is to read the flowing amperage through the wire, and then the voltage of the circuit. By multiplying these two electrical characteristics, you can also find the true power consumption in the circuit called “watts.” Find the voltage of the electrical circuit. Turn the meter’s selector switch to the “Volts AC” position. The meter should read “0.0 VAC.” Insert the two probes into the meter. The red probe will go into the “Volts” connector or the red connector. The black probe will be inserted in
