A clamp meter — also known as a clamp tester — is an electrical test tool that combines a basic digital multimeter with a current sensor. Clamp meters measure a number of electrical properties, including AC current, AC and DC voltage, resistance and continuity. Some models can also measure DC current, capacitance, temperature, frequency and more.

Clamp meters are designed with a hinged jaw, which allows the user to clamp the jaws around a wire, cable or other conductors at any point in an electrical system, and then measure the current flowing through it without interrupting the circuit.

They are extremely popular due to several factors, including their safety features, ease of use and cost-effectiveness for ongoing testing, maintenance and service requirements. Additionally, they are valuable for identifying issues during installations, such as overloaded circuits or incorrect wiring.

## **Purpose of Clamp Meters**

Clamp meters are versatile electrical testing tools used for various purposes, including:

- **Measuring Current:** A clamp meter's primary function is to measure electrical current flowing through a conductor, providing crucial information for understanding circuit loads, diagnosing faults and ensuring safe operation. This includes measuring the current draw of [AC motors](https://au.rs-online.com/web/content/discovery/ideas-and-advice/ac-motors-guide) to assess their performance and diagnose potential faults.
- **Troubleshooting Circuits:** When it comes to identifying electrical problems, clamp meters are invaluable tools. By measuring current at various points, technicians can pinpoint issues such as overloaded circuits, faulty components or wiring problems.
- **Monitoring Power Usage:** For those looking to monitor power consumption and identify energy-saving opportunities, clamp meters can be extremely useful. They provide insights into the power usage of appliances and equipment, helping to pinpoint energy hogs and implement efficiency measures.
- **Ensure Electrical Safety:** Clamp meters play a vital role in enhancing electrical safety. They enable the identification of potential hazards like overloaded circuits or ground faults, allowing for prompt corrective action to prevent accidents and damage.

## **Types of Clamp Meters**

Clamp meters are available in various types to cater to different measurement needs and applications. RS Australia offers a diverse selection of clamp meters, including: 

### **AC Clamp Meters**

Designed specifically for measuring alternating current (AC) in electrical circuits, AC clamp meters offer a safe and convenient way to measure high currents without interrupting the circuit. These versatile meters are commonly used for measuring currents in various applications, including household wiring, industrial equipment and power distribution systems.

### **DC Clamp Meters**

DC clamp meters are specialized tools that provide a non-invasive way to measure direct current (DC) in electrical circuits without breaking the circuit. They are often used in automotive applications, battery systems and DC power supplies where accurate DC current measurement is essential.

### **Multimeter Clamp Meters**

Combining the functionality of a clamp meter with a digital multimeter, these versatile tools offer a comprehensive range of measurement capabilities. In addition to AC and DC current, they can measure AC and DC voltage, resistance, continuity and more. This makes them valuable for electricians, technicians and engineers who require a complete measurement solution in a single device.

## **Industry Applications of Clamp Meters**

Clamp meters are versatile tools used across a wide range of industries for diverse applications, including: 

- **Industrial Maintenance Technicians:** In industrial settings, maintenance technicians rely on clamp meters to diagnose and repair electrical faults in machinery and equipment. They use these tools to measure current draw, identify overloads and ensure the safe operation of critical systems, including those powered by [DC motors](https://au.rs-online.com/web/content/discovery/ideas-and-advice/dc-motors-guide).
- **Control Technicians:** For those working with automated systems and control panels, clamp meters are essential for monitoring and troubleshooting electrical signals and control circuits. They help ensure the proper functioning of automated processes and prevent costly downtime.
- **Electricians: **Both in-house electricians and contractors utilize clamp meters for a wide range of tasks, from installing and testing new electrical systems to troubleshooting existing ones. These meters provide valuable information for ensuring safety and compliance with electrical codes.
- **Facilities, Building Maintenance, and HVAC Technicians:** Professionals responsible for maintaining buildings and facilities rely on clamp meters to monitor and troubleshoot electrical systems, including HVAC equipment, lighting systems and power distribution. This helps ensure efficient operation and prevent energy waste.
- **Service Organizations:** Service technicians across various industries use clamp meters to diagnose and repair electrical faults in a wide range of equipment, from appliances and electronics to industrial machinery. These meters help ensure the safe and efficient operation of customer equipment
