Fluke Multimeters

Multimeters are devices that measure multiple electrical values, including voltage (volts), current (amps), and resistance (ohms). They are considered an essential tool for diagnosing issues, testing circuits and ensuring electrical safety in components and circuits. Multimeters are available in various types, each tailored to specific needs, from basic models for beginners to advanced precision multimeters for professionals who require testers with a broader range of measurement capabilities.

For more information, check out our digital multimeters guide.

What Is a Multimeter For?

The multimeter's purpose is to check the electrical resistance within a circuit. They are available in two different types: analogue or digital. Within the device, many tests can be performed. Additionally, no two multimeters are the same, and the functions can vary with the price. So, it's important to have a good quality multimeter with multiple functions if you are an electronic engineer and electrician.

Multimeter Types

Here are the types of multimeters that you can buy online through RS HK:

• Analogue Multimeters - relatively simple to use, but have limited features and functions.
• Digital Multimeters (DMMs) - come in various forms, including handheld, benchtop, and clamp meter versions, each catering to specific measurement requirements.
• Bench multimeters - more suitable for workshop and laboratory-based engineers and technicians who need a reliable instrument for maintenance, test, or repair tasks.

Difference Between an Analogue and Digital Multimeter

Analogue multimeters use a needle scale to show their readings, whereas digital multimeters have a numeric display. As the needle can move over time due to fluctuations caused by the flow of the electricity, the needle will move over time. With the advances in technology, digital multimeters (DMM) have become more popular as they have the ability to measure with greater accuracy and the LCD display is easy to read.

Checks Performed by Multimeters Include:

• AC or DC voltages
• Resistance
• Continuity of electrical components
• Current in circuits
• Diode testing
• Some advanced multimeter models may measure frequency, temperature and capacitance while having True RMS voltage and current readings
• Automatic ranging capabilities, which automatically select the measurement range

Multimeters Applications

Multimeters are used across a range of industries, environments and applications, including the following:

• Electronics Testing: Used for prototyping, troubleshooting and verifying electrical components in electronics projects.
• Domestic and Commercial Electrical Wiring: Assists in installing and maintaining electrical wiring in homes and businesses.
• Industrial Settings: Used for troubleshooting, maintenance and ensuring safety in industrial electrical systems.
• Automotive Servicing: Aids in diagnosing electrical issues and verifying proper operation of vehicle systems.
