2. Electrical outlet tester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_outlet_tester

   A receptacle tester being used to check for some types of improper wiring of an outlet. For this particular tester, proper wiring is indicated by the two yellow lights. The outlet tester checks that each contact in the outlet appears to be connected to the correct wire in the building's electrical wiring. It can identify several common wiring ...

3. Current clamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_clamp

   An electrical meter with integral AC current clamp is known as a clamp meter, clamp-on ammeter, tong tester, or colloquially as an amp clamp. A clamp meter measures the vector sum of the currents flowing in all the conductors passing through the probe, which depends on the phase relationship of the currents.

4. Current sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

   The design of the saturable inductor current sensor is similar to that of a closed-loop Hall-effect current sensor; the only difference is that this method uses the saturable inductor instead of the Hall-effect sensor in the air gap. Saturable inductor current sensor is based on the detection of an inductance change. The saturable inductor is ...

   Measures the frequency of the current Leakage tester: Measures leakage across the plates of a capacitor LCR meter: Measures the inductance, capacitance and resistance of a component Megger tester: Measures Resistance of an Winding of Motor or Generator And Measures Earthing's Resistance Microwave power meter: Measures power at microwave frequencies

6. Ammeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

   In a similar way, accurate AC/DC non-contact ammeters have been constructed using Hall effect magnetic field sensors. A portable hand-held clamp-on ammeter is a common tool for maintenance of industrial and commercial electrical equipment, which is temporarily clipped over a wire to measure current. Some recent types have a parallel pair of ...

7. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   This is a current-loaded measurement, which simulates in-use battery loads; normal voltage ranges draw very little current from the battery. Various sensors can be attached to (or included in) multimeters to take measurements such as: Luminance; Sound pressure level; pH; Relative humidity; Very small current flow (down to nanoamps with some ...
