The Amprobe ACD-22SW digital clamp meter with swivel clamp and non-contact voltage detector is a true RMS (root mean square) sensing, auto- or manual-ranging multimeter for measuring current, voltage, and resistance in electrical testing and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications. It has a transformer clamp that measures alternating current (AC) to 400 amp. The meter comes with detachable test leads that measure direct current (DC) voltage and AC voltage to 600 volts (V) and resistance to 40 megaohms. The clamp has two jaws that can close around a conductor up to 1.18" (30 mm) in diameter to measure current or frequency without touching or interrupting the circuit. It swivels 180 degrees to allow the liquid crystal display (LCD) to be seen when taking readings in hard-to-reach areas. The meter's non-contact voltage detector senses AC voltage without making contact with the circuit. An audible continuity sensor confirms that the circuit conducts electricity, and a diode test detects whether a circuit’s diodes are working properly. The hold function keeps the reading on the display, even after the meter is disconnected. The meter's backlit liquid crystal display (LCD) is visible in low light. The unit automatically turns off after 10 minutes of non-use to conserve battery life, and a low-battery indicator signals when the meter's batteries need to be replaced. A finger guard on the body of the meter helps protect fingers from shock.This true RMS (root mean square) sensing meter provides accurate readings when measuring linear loads, such as standard induction motors and incandescent lights, where the current or voltage has a sinusoidal waveform, or non-linear loads, such as electronic devices or motors, where the current or voltage has a sinusoidal non-sinusoidal waveform. Two ranging modes (auto or manual) offer a range of operator control when taking readings. When turned on, the meter will be in auto-ranging mode and will automatically select the correct operating range for the pro...
