Analog multimeter Digital multimeter. A multimeter (also known as a volt-ohm-milliammeter, volt-ohmmeter or VOM) [1] is a measuring instrument that can measure multiple electrical properties. [2] [3] A typical multimeter can measure voltage, resistance, and current, [4] in which case can be used as a voltmeter, ohmmeter, and ammeter.
Capacitance meter: Measures the capacitance component Current clamp: Measures current without physical connection Curve tracer: Applies swept signals to a device and allows display of the response Cos Phi Meter: Measures the power factor Distortionmeter: Measures the distortion added to a circuit Electricity meter: Measures the amount of energy ...
Ideal Industries is an American company that produces connectors, hand tools, testers, and meters for the electrical and telecommunications industries. [ 2 ] The company manufactures many of its products in the United States . [ 3 ]
An EMF meter is a scientific instrument for measuring electromagnetic fields (abbreviated as EMF). Most meters measure the electromagnetic radiation flux density (DC fields) or the change in an electromagnetic field over time (AC fields), essentially the same as a radio antenna, but with quite different detection characteristics.
Radar speed gun, a Doppler radar device, using the Doppler effect for indirect measurement of velocity. Speedometer; Tachometer (speed of rotation) Tachymeter; Variometer (rate of climb or descent) Velocimetry (measurement of fluid velocity) For the ranges of speed-values see: Orders of magnitude (speed)
A capacitance meter is a piece of electronic test equipment used to measure capacitance, [1] mainly of discrete capacitors. Depending on the sophistication of the meter, it may display the capacitance only, or it may also measure a number of other parameters such as leakage , equivalent series resistance (ESR), and inductance .
When measuring with a field strength meter it is important to use a calibrated antenna such as the standard antenna supplied with the meter. For precision measurements the antenna must be at a standard height. A value of standard height frequently employed for VHF and UHF measurements is 10 metres (33 ft).
Two Heathkit Grid Dip Meters with a set of tuning coils. The dip meter can be used either to measure the relative power lost to a nearby circuit (in which case the amplitude shown on the meter "dips") or to measure the relative power absorbed from a nearby powered circuit (in which case, the meter amplitude peaks). In either mode of operation ...
