What type of meter is best for troubleshooting irrigation wiring problems?
A. Keep it simple, simple, simple. 95% of all irrigation field wiring problems can be diagnosed with AC voltage readings and Ohms readings. All the other bells and whistles on big, expensive, fancy meters will never be used. In addition, those big complicated meters are hard to use as well. They also set the stage for bad readings if you do not use them correctly.
