[time-nuts] multimeter

[Bob Albert]

 I have a cheap Chinese clamp-on power line ammeter I use occasionally.  Its lowest range is 20 A I think but I built a 10:1 expander (very simple).  I also built a line separator so I can grip just one line.

For the former, I find a built-in clamp type AC/DC ammeter with a
reasonably sensitive range (40 A or less) is very handy. My current
favorite is the Mastech MS2108, from Amazon.
