A clamp meter is an electrical test tool that combines a basic digital multi meter with a current sensor. Clamps measure current such as AC current, AC and DC voltage, resistance, continuity, and, with some models, DC current, capacitance, temperature, frequency, and more.

Clamp meters are designed with a hinged jaw, this allows the user to clamp the jaws around a wire, cable, or other conductors at any point in an electrical system, then measure the current without disconnecting it. They are extremely popular due to safety reasons, they are convenient to use, they identify issues when installations occur and are cost effective for ongoing tester, maintenance and service requirements.

Our range of meters have been sourced from leading brands such as: Beha-Amprobe, Chauvin Arnoux, Fluke, FLIR, Keysight Technologies, Megger, RS PRO and many more.

### Why would you need a clamp meter?

Originally created as a single-purpose test tool, modern day meters offer more measurement functions, greater accuracy, and sometimes specialised measurement features, as well as the most basic functions of a digital multi meter, such as the ability to measure voltage, continuity, and resistance.

### Popular Clamp Meters
- AC Current
- DC Current
- AC-DC
- Leakage
- HVAC
- Power

### Who uses them?
- Industrial maintenance technicians
- Control technicians
- Electricians – in-house and contractors
- Facilities, building maintenance, and HVAC technicians
- Service organisations

### Why are clamp meters so popular?
- Safety: Clamp meters allow electricians to bypass the old-school method of cutting into a wire and inserting a meter's test leads into the circuit to take an inline current measurement. The jaws of a clamp meter do not need to touch a conductor during a measurement.
- Convenience: During measurement, it is not necessary to shut off the circuit carrying current—a large boost inefficiency.
- Service: Repair existing systems on an as-needed basis.
- Installation: Troubleshooting installation problems, perform final circuit tests and supervise apprentice electricians while installing electrical equipment.
- Maintenance: Perform scheduled and preventative maintenance and system troubleshooting.

### Applications
- Industrial equipment
- Industrial controls
- Electrical systems
- Commercial/industrial HVAC

<p>DC clamp meters are hand-held devices also known as DC clamp testers. They are designed to measure the direct current (DC) flow in a conductor. Using a hall effect sensor, they detect the conductor's magnetic field to produce voltage readings. Our range of dc clamp meters has been sourced from leading brands such as; Fluke and Chauvin Arnoux and many more. </p><h2>How to use DC clamp meters? </h2><p>Select the measuring range required, press the trigger to open the clamp meter jaws, clamp around the conductor you want to test, and the device will produce the measurement readings. It's important to note that for accurate readings only clamp one conductor at a time, calibrate the zero settings to eliminate magnetic pickup readings from electrical devices and electronic equipment.</p><h2>Popular features & benefits</h2><p>Modern DC clamp meters include;</p><ul><li>Electrical probes</li><li>Test leads</li><li>Bluetooth connectivity</li></ul><h2>Safety</h2><p>Operational safety is guaranteed, you don't need to break the circuit to conduct measurements with a clamp meter, so you can perform the tasks of measuring the current of an insulated conductor or low and high voltage.</p><h2>Applications</h2><p>DC clamp meters are ideal for both residential and commercial electricians for testing and installation applications</p><h2>Why should you choose RS for DC Clamp Meters? </h2><p>We put customer satisfaction at the forefront of our business, we've been established since 1936 and have unrivalled expertise when it comes to providing customers with DC Clamp Meters. We support engineers all over the world, distributing products to customers in over 160 countries.</p>
