   Measures current 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

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

   In electrical engineering, current sensing is any one of several techniques used to measure electric current. The measurement of current ranges from picoamps to tens of thousands of amperes. The selection of a current sensing method depends on requirements such as magnitude, accuracy, bandwidth, robustness, cost, isolation or size. The current ...

   Ammeter, e.g. Galvanometer or Milliammeter (Measures current) Multimeter e.g., VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) or DMM (Digital Multimeter) (Measures all of the above) LCR meter - inductance (L), capacitance (C) and resistance (R) meter (measure LCR values) The following are used for stimulus of the circuit under test: Power supplies; Signal generator

6. Current transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_transformer

   A current transformer is designed to maintain an accurate ratio between the currents in its primary and secondary circuits over a defined range. The alternating current in the primary produces an alternating magnetic field in the core, which then induces an alternating current in the secondary. The primary circuit is largely unaffected by the ...

7. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   Every inline series-connected ammeter, including a multimeter in a current range, has a certain resistance. Most multimeters inherently measure voltage, and pass a current to be measured through a shunt resistance, measuring the voltage developed across it. The voltage drop is known as the burden voltage, specified in volts per ampere.

8. Ammeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

   Demonstration model of a moving iron ammeter. As the current through the coil increases, the plunger is drawn further into the coil and the pointer deflects to the right. An ammeter (abbreviation of ampere meter) is an instrument used to measure the current in a circuit. Electric currents are measured in amperes (A), hence the name. For direct ...

9. Electrical isolation test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_isolation_test

   In electrical engineering, an electrical isolation test is a direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) resistance test that is performed on sub-systems of an electronic system to verify that a specified level of isolation resistance is met.
