Multimeters

Multimeters are a type of instrument used to measure electric currents, voltage and resistance over several ranges of values. Analog or digital options are available depending on the type of circuit being used. Most are handheld devices which are useful for detecting faults. They are an important tool for any electrician, and can help with troubleshooting issues with appliances, circuits, power supplies and wiring systems. They are key for recording alternating voltage, direct voltage, currents either alternating or direct, resistance in Ohms, Capacity (farads), conductance (Siemens), Decibels, Duty cycle, Frequency, Inductance and temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
