Re: Clamp meter

 

I currently use a Fluke AC/DC amp clamp and a Craftsman ACD/DC clamp.
The craftsman measures down to the microamps, and works well.?
That external clamp sounds interesting

Thanks and 73?
Dean

I have one of the Extech clamp meters and am very happy with it.
It was recommended here by Eric Lemmon (SK)
I used it when I was working for 48 volts DC current readings.

I do have a Weston model 633 clamp meter for sale.
It is large and very rugged.
Ranges by a slider switch:
0-10,? 25,? 100,? 250,? 500,? and 1000 amps.

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.
