About Analog Multimeters

Analog multimeters are instruments that are used to measure electrical quantities such as voltage, current, resistance, frequency and signal power. Basic functionality includes measurement of potential in volts, resistance in ohms, and current in amps. Analog multimeters are used to find electronic and electrical problems. Advanced units come with more features such as capacitor, diode and IC testing modes.

Specific measurements made by analog multimeters include DC voltage, AC voltage, DC current, AC current, frequency range for AC currents, and decibel measurement. Analog multimeters that measure current may have a current clamp built-in or configured as a probe. A current clamp is a sensor that clamps around the wire. When searching for analog multimeters it is important to consider the measurement range for whichever value is being measured. An analog multimeter displays these values via a dial, typically a moving pointer or needle. Analog multimeters are generally bench top or hand held. Bench top models can also be portable by use of handles and wheels. Hand held multimeters are specifically designed to be used while holding, i.e., can be operated with one hand.
