Currents Measurement Instruments

Current measurement instruments are tools used to measure the flow of electric charge in a circuit, expressed in amperes (A). The most common types include ammeters, which measure current directly, and clamp meters, which can measure current without needing to make direct contact with the circuit. These instruments are essential for electricians and engineers to ensure that electrical systems operate safely and efficiently, preventing overloads and failures. Understanding current is crucial for maintaining the proper functioning of electrical devices and for troubleshooting electrical problems.
