For
getting into confined spaces I find a clamp current transformer works better for
me, what i have is a unit about 1x1.5x3" which outputs on a pair of 4mm sockets.
200A:200mA, the DMM can then be in a much better/visible lotation.
We had purchased a mini clamp meter for use at the place I used to
work for. It was similar to the one on Amazon "Extech 380950 Mini AC/DC
80A Clamp Meter" but I don't remember the brand.
We found that the
mini size meter was able to get into small spaces where the larger ones,
mostly designed for electrical contractor work, would not
fit.
