The difference between digital multimeter and caliper type multimeter

The difference between digital multimeter and caliper type multimeter

Answer:

Clamp type ammeter and multimeter principle using different methods are not the same. As long as the table clamp clamp a wire can measure the current, suitable for high current measurement, the multimeter measuring current but is connected to the circuit, otherwise can not be measured. The multimeter measured current to the circuit are connected in series go
The principle of clamp meter is the use of electromagnetic induction principle, core wire clamp measurement will require the clamp meter of silicon steel lamination edges, then the wire clamp is equivalent to a coil current transformer, belonging to a current through the coil, when will dinner two coil clamp type ammeter inside induction two current, current in the wire clamp type ammeter dial can read the measurements.
