  • In this video I demonstrate how to use a clamp meter / current clamp to measure current and the potential issues that can cause erroneous readings.

    * The effect of magnets and magnetic fields on camp meter readings.
    * The issues / sensitivity of Hall effect sensors / transducers / transformers
    * Getting the conductor aligned correctly in the clamp meter
