User questions & answers

Question:	can i get an accurate amp reading on kitchen appliances such as toasters, microwaves with this meter
Answer:	Sounds like what you need is a Kill-A-Watt meter (brand name). You plug the meter in the wall then plug the appliance in the meter. Real simple. Gives amps, watts, volts, etc.
Question:	Can the clamp measure voltage without load
Answer:	The clamp (non-contact) can only measure current (amperage), not voltage. To measure voltage, you'd need to use the probes on a physical connection (terminal or bare wire).
Question:	I am working on a light fixture - if I want to test the actual wires (and not outlet) to see if they're live, what setting would I need to do this on
Answer:	Nobody else said it, but if you use the clamp meter, it must be around a SINGLE wire, it will not work if you clamp around both wires of the cable. You must separate the wires, and clamp only one wire. And the clamp is only gonna measure current, so if the lamp isn't working, this probably won't work. If the plag is plugged-in though, there will be a voltage present, so a non contact voltage tester should be sufficient enough to tell you it's live. Please be careful.
Question:	people said it has an audible beep for continuity and 2 people said it doesn't. What is the true answer
Answer:	It does have an audible beep for continuity. It is an option that must be activated by pushing a button to enable this feature of continuity testing.

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the concrete tips for automatic shutdown
Answer:	Step 1.) Run around in circles until u get too dizzy to continue or 15 min has passed, then it will auto shut off. 2.) There is no step two. If you have further questions or need more concrete tips, just continue repeating step 1 until it sinks in.
Question:	W/ backlite on I tilt the meter away from me the display is readable but once I tilt it towards myself the display becomes unreadable, is this normal
Answer:	Yes, with the baclklight on, it's viewable from straight-on to tilted away from yourself, but with the top tilted towards you it loses all contrast. Side-to-side viewing angle is a good. This is a common trait among some LCD displays.
Question:	I want to measure current flowing to my car starter when cranking engine. Does this clamp on meter measure DC current when using clamp
Answer:	Yes, It can read DC starting current with the clamp when set to DC measurement. Reading moves fast but I take video with mobile phone camera and rewind to see the 268A when starting a Nissan Frontier 2.5 L engine. Reasonable current though I cannot check its accuracy yet. I buy meter to monitor DC charging current and confirm non-running car leaking currents under 50mA but need to wait 20 minutes after engine off to let car computer stabilize from initial shutoff which can cab be as high as 0.6A. With this meter, I also find about 10mV leaking voltage on plastic surface between terminals at new battery (due to acid filling spill at manufacturing?) from club store which I need to reduce the Voltage drop to less than 0.1 mV by scribing several grooves on plastics surface around terminal posts. Calibrate to zero by holding Z/F button few seconds before measurement can help read accuracy. I am happy with this meter for the price. Hope you too if do not have time to find a better cheaper on
Question:	how accurate is th DC current measurment
Answer:	I have not checked it against a reference, but I have done some measurements on my car with this. It seemed to reflect a reasonable value when the battery charger was on, showing charging current. and It showed a big current for the started that was believable. When you first set it, you can press a zero button to zero it out. Then I looked at a really bad solar panel that could only put out about 50 milliamps when shorted, and it was able to show that pretty well. So the bottom line, if you are going to use this for debugging stuff, it seems pretty good. If you are going to measure calorie input to control a chemical reactions in a pharmaceutical lab, I can't say. For me, it is just cool that it can do a DC current in the first place. Has already come in handy as I was able to determine my alternator was not charging my battery quite easily.

To measure Direct Current

Specifications:

If current> 3A, the orange display lights up.

The measuring range of DC current is 60A/600A. Accuracy: ±(2.5%+5).

Note:

Before measuring the DC current, long-press and hold the Z/F key until the ZERO character appears to clear the data.

To measure Alternating Current

Specifications:

If current> 3A, the orange display lights up.

The measuring range of AC current is 60A/600A. Accuracy: ±(2.5%+5).

Note:

To measure the current you need to clamp the meter around one of the wires and not the whole power cord. The power cord contains two wires carrying current and ground wire. The current in two wires always flows in opposite directions, so the magnetic fields from two wires canceling each other, therefore the meter reads 0 A.

Grasp the individual current conductor to be measured and close the current clamp again. The measured conductor must be placed in the center of the clamp, otherwise, additional errors will occur.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use this to measure the voltage on my car battery
Answer:	Voltage yes.
Question:	is this meter a true RMS
Answer:	Hi, HT200B is not true rms meter. There is fuse protection while reading continuity if voltage is present.
Question:	Does it have an audible beep for continuity
Answer:	It does have an audible beep for continuity and the LED lights up.
Question:	Can I get an accurate amp reading on kitchen appliances this meter
Answer:	They sell a gizmo that you plug your appliance into and then plug into the wall. It separates the wires so you can measure your amps. It's square in form. BTW, the start-up amperage of motors can be 3 times the working amperage. This meter will grab the highest current draw for you if you just push the "Max" button before you turn on the appliance. It will turn the LED display red to alert you that it's done that. Great meter.

User questions & answers

Question:	I need to measure volts, amps and hertz to adjust my generator. Does this model measure hertz
Answer:	hello this model does not measure herzt.
Question:	if I, say, clamp a 120V AC lamp cord, will it measure amps correctly? What about a 220V pool pump motor? Thanks
Answer:	No. You have to use a AC line splitter tool found here on amazon. The line splitter plugs into the wall and then the lamp plugs into the line splitter. Then you can use your clamp meter to measure amps. this separates the neutral and the hot wire so you can meassure the amperage.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can it measures in rush
Answer:	EVIDENTLY some "people" answer, or try to answer questions that they have no fricking idea about what they are talking about.... YES, it DOES measure "inrush", or more correctly, SURGE current. I have found that due to its sensitivity you need to select the high- 600 amp range since it will sense the current spikes that are VERY, VERY short. (IF your are measuring a smaller current, ~2-4 amps, then the 60 amp range will work). ALL you have to do is press the "min/max" button.... IF the 60 amp range does not work at first, then the 600 amp range should be selected.. THIS IS THE REAL ANSWER...... (And NO, you do not have to keep your "eye on it") Scheesh........
Question:	just received order and unit does not show that it is true rms. should it be posted on the item
Answer:	Yes it should be labeled on the outside of the item where it is visible. If the description said it was true rms when placing your order, it should be. But if it's not labeled as true rms after you received order then only 2 things can be wrong. 1st they sent you the wrong item, or 2nd it was a factory erar that accured when the item was manufacturerd . Either or, id send it back and ask for the wright one
Question:	can i use the clamp on devise to measure the negetive battery cable to find if something is drawing my battery down
Answer:	No, this clamp meter is foe AC amps only. UNI-T 210E is one of many clamp metesr that can do DC amps and can be used for what you ask about.
Question:	How long is the warranty
Answer:	One year warranty.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a true RMS meter
Answer:	It works like any other volt ,ohm , amp , meter .
Question:	The description says no batteries required. How can it measure resistance then
Answer:	I liked the Klein cl380, I've used Klein tools before. I killed mine. Clamped it to a motor that I thought would be less that 40A . It wasn't. I looked the motor up and found run amps was 39A, So with the INRUSH, it killed it. This amp meter is not like an a AMPROBE with internal protection. Not $400 either. If your careful, start at highest range it should work for you.
Question:	I see a hold button on the meter. Is that a "Hold the max reading" or "Freeze the readout when pushed
Answer:	CR2032

User questions & answers

Question:	which setting is for volts, and which is for ac
Answer:	The V with the two lines is DC volts and the line with the squiggly line is AC volts.
Question:	is the continuity test audible
Answer:	Good question. and I can't find an answer it doesn't say but in the picture when it's showing someone testing continuity it shows that it's beeping what it doesn't say that it does beat and we've got two people on here that say it does not and two people that say that it does so good luck I'm looking for one that is audible myself why all multimeters don't have an audible noise when you have continuity I will never know either that or you can have one that has a paper thin needle that jumps and you can't see it and you have to take your eyes off of what you're working on to see if you have continuity and when you move your head you lose contact and it's such a pain in the ass
Question:	Is this unit protected by a fuse? If so, is it replaceable? My last meter was fused but it was soldered. I couldn't easily replace it
Answer:	I had to replace the ammeter fuse (because I forgot to switch the hot (red) test lead from the left side to the middle, before testing my car's battery voltage). That fuse is 10A 600V. I looked around for those & couldn't find them, but found 10A 250V and these worked OK. They're 20 x 5 mm ( .2 x .79") ceramic fast-blow. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07JFDTTMJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Question:	Can this handle being plugged into a wall socket? Also, can someone give a walkthrough of how to safely test a socket
Answer:	plug the red lead into the meter socket marked COM and the black into the center meter socket. Set the dial to V~ (for AC volts) on the 200 scale (for household current) insert one probe lead into each of the wall socket's vertical slots and move them around a bit inside the outlet slots to make sure you're getting a good connection, if in doubt plug a lamp or something into the socket. If you suspect the outlet socket itself has failed carefully remove the wall plate in order to access the actual wires connected to the outlet to be sure it's either a dead circuit or the outlet itself has failed.
