- Supplied with a rubber holster, 4 wire cable, test leads, 6 AA batteries, instruction manual and convenient carry case for easy storage and protection of the instrument
Applications:
A digital multimeter or DMM is an essential test tool that measures electrical values such as voltage, current, and resistance. A DMM is used as a standard diagnostics tool or device by technicians and electrical engineers in the following areas:
- Electrical and electronics industries
- Cable installation
- Construction
- Industrial manufacturing
What is the difference between an analogue and a digital multimeter?
The main difference is the display. A digital multimeter will show the results as numbers on a screen (usually an LED or LCD screen) whereas the analogue version has a needle to show the value.
What is the benefit of having a 4-wire or Kelvin Small Resistance Measurement feature in this multimeter?
Accurate and reliable measurement of low-value resistance is very important, especially when testing or completing diagnostics on cables that will be carrying significant current, or dependability is required, for example in medical or military applications. Faulty low-resistance connections have the potential to cause a fire or explosion, which is why the Kelvin method of testing is used. This RS PRO multimeter provides an incredibly sensitive method of testing that can detect faulty crimps, bad solder joins, stress-damaged wires and much more that could cause a lot of damage should they fail if they go undetected.
Is it possible to have this unit calibrated?
Yes, the unit can be calibrated to RSCAL or ISOCAL standards and can be found here:
