The Megger DCM1500 TRMS clamp meter is designed to be used on electrical systems and equipment to measure current, volts, resistance, and
frequency. It can be used while installing, maintaining, fault-finding or monitoring large AC or DC electrical systems and equipment. By
using True RMS measurement techniques, the DCM1500 avoids the errors which can occur when non-sinusoidal waveforms created by today's complex
loads are measured using traditional average sensing clamp meters.
Using the Relative mode (REL), a stable value can be stored, the instrument zeroed at that point, and then any variation from that value is
displayed as a direct measurement relative to it. The backlight display is helpful in poorly lit areas such as distribution cupboards and corners
of switchrooms; and the data-hold feature enables use on difficult access cables where otherwise the display may be impossible to see.
Applications for DC Current Measurement
- Domestic power generation from solar panels and wind-turbines
- Battery monitoring
- Automotive uses for charging and load circuits
- Electric vehicle servicing such as fork-lift trucks
- Lift maintenance
- UPS commissioning, servicing and maintenance
- Electro-plating plants
- Welding equipment servicing
