Q8A-2 10A high sensitivity 0.1% permalloy core ct AC current clamp

permalloy core ac current clamp

AC current clamps are devices with jaws that open up and clamp around an electrical conductor to measure current. They are very useful as they allow you to clip the probe around an existing conductor without having to disconnect and reroute cables. AC current clamps will read the magnitude of alternating current (AC) as well as the phase shift and waveform.
