Megger DCM1500 True RMS AC/DC Clamp Meter - 1500A
Measure AC/DC current up to 1500A with Megger's DCM1500 clamp meter!
The DCM1500's jaws are large in size and suitable for clamping directly around conductors with maximum size of up to 51mm. This makes the meter particularly suited for testing everything from smaller to larger conductors, all without breaking the circuit.
It's also possible to use the DCM1500 to measure AC voltage to 750V, DC voltage to 1000V and it can test resistance, continuity and frequency. Thanks to true RMS as standard, the DCM1500 is made to maintain its accuracy even when testing on irregular waveforms, ensuring you'll always get a reliable result.
Additional features of this clamp meter include a backlit LCD screen for use in the dark, MIN/MAX mode to store values over a period of time, auto-off when left idle and it's even drop tested to a height of 1.2m onto a hard floor.

| AC Conversion Type: *add 2 digits to accuracy when reading less 15% of full scale AC conversions are AC-coupled, true RMS responding, calibrated to the RMS value of a sine wave input. Accuracies are given for sine wave at full scale and non-sine wave below half scale. For non-sine wave, add the following Crest Factor corrections: - For Crest Factor of 1.4 to 2.0, add 1.0% to accuracy - For Crest Factor of 2.0 to 2.5, add 2.5% to accuracy - For Crest Factor of 2.5 to 3.0, add 4.0% to accuracy Max.CF: 2@600A, 1.5@1500A |
