Can the fluke317 clamp meter test DC current?
But the switch is not allowed to operate when charged. Clamp meter general accuracy is not high, usually 2.5 ~ 5. In order to facilitate the use of the table there are different ranges of switching switches for measuring different levels of current and voltage measurement function. Clamp meter is composed of a current transformer and current meter assembly. The iron core of the current transformer can be opened when the wrench is tightened; the wire through which the current is measured can be cut through the opening of the iron core without cutting off, and when the wrench is released, the iron core is closed. Through the test circuit of the core, the wire becomes the primary coil of the current transformer, in which the current is induced in the two coil through the current. A current meter connected with the two coil is then instructed to measure the current of the line being measured. A table can shift through the switch, the scale change.

The general clamp type meter can only measure alternating current. To measure DC current to use a special DC clamp meter.
