• What is the Use of Digital Clamp Meter?

• A digital clamp meter is an electrical test
  tool that is a combination of a basic digital
  multimeter and a current sensor. Electricians use
  it widely to measure current. It has a hinged jaw
  integrated into an electrical meter. The
  technician can clamp the jaws around a cable,
  wire, or other conductors at any point in the
  electrical system. It measures current then
  without de-energizing or disconnecting it.

• Below the plastic molding, there are hard
  jaws made of ferrite iron, which are engineered
  to detect, measure, and concentrate the magnetic
  field generated by the current when it flows
  through the conductor.

• What is Digital Clamp Meter?

• This tool is very much useful for Electricity
  Suppliers and Engineering Students. In fact,
  anyone that works with electrical energy and the
  electrical instrument has wide use of digital
  clamp meters.

• Though it was originally created as a
  single-purpose tool, the new-age digital clamp
  meter offers measurement functions with greater
  accuracy. In some cases, it has specialized
  measurement features. They have features of a
  Digital Multimeter as well, to measure voltage,
  continuity, and resistance.

• What are the Applications of a Digital Clamp
  Meter?

• Digital Clamp meters are not just used
  in Engineering Colleges but they are a widely
  used tool in various industrial scenarios.
  Typically, in heavy machinery and manufacturing
  units, aeronautics or Indian Railway, power
  grids, and various other industries, they are
  used.

• Digital clamp meters are useful in
  troubleshooting. They are essential for testing
  equipment. The quick functionality and safety of
  a clamp meter are ideal for testing plants and
  machinery. It can measure current as well as
  voltage. Hence, it is useful.

• They are useful in monitoring and measuring
  current in electrical installations. In
  commercial and industrial installations, digital
  clamp meters are useful when building and
  repairing industrial equipment and machinery.

• When an electrician learns the skill, it is
  important to know about all conditions on the job
  site. A clamp meter can be handy and useful to
  monitor the system. They can supervise the
  apprentice as they work to install or update
  equipment. A clamp meter allows for a quick and
  final circuit test.

• The most common use of this tool is in repair
  and maintenance. It is an important tool in the
  toolbox of a technician. Especially, technicians
  that perform repair, maintenance, and checkup
  of HVAC systems make use of clamp meters
  regularly. They can measure current and voltage
  using this tool.

• MEXTECH is one of the best companies for
  providing a wide range of test and measurement
  instruments in India. For over years they have
  been a leading manufacturing company specializing
  in digital multimeters, clamp meters,
  thermometers, Thermo hygrometers various other
  instruments.
