Are Klein Clamp meters any good?

Top Features. Klein Tools makes several high-quality electricians’ tools, and this CL800 Digital Clamp Meter and Probe Tester is at the top of our list for a reason. The Klein CL800 also has a Class 2, double-insulated safety rating.

What does a clamp meter do?

A clamp meter is an electrical test tool that combines a basic digital multimeter with a current sensor. Beneath their plastic moldings, hard jaws consist of ferrite iron and are engineered to detect, concentrate and measure the magnetic field being generated by current as it flows through a conductor.

What is the best clamp meter for electrician?
