Applications:

• Digital Multimeters are a type of measurement device used to test and measure a range of electrical properties such as voltage (volts), current (amps) and resistance (ohms). Using a digital output readout, the digital multimeter is connected to a device and measures typically the voltage and any resistances, giving you an output you can measure. Digital multimeters offer a wide range of AC and DC measurement capabilities to suit a variety of applications. Multimeters are essential tester tools for carrying out electrical work from home renovations to large scale installations.

FAQs

What is "Low Z setting"

• The "Low Z" setting allows the multimeter to eliminate errors commonly found with "ghost" voltages. Ghost voltages are present when non-powered wires are in close proximity to wires powered by AC voltage.

What is the IP rating?

• The IP rating refers to the level of protection offered by the enclosure of the device. The first number relates to the level of protection from solids such as dust, where as the second digit relates to liquid. The higher the IP rating, the higher the level of protection will be.
• This device features an IP67 rating, offering protection from dust ingress and water.

Does this include a continuity check?

• Yes, this device features a continuity check feature.

Does it feature an audible signal?

• Yes, an audible signal is present if the resistance is approx. 50 ±5 or less.
