I obtained a Simpson 150 Amp Clamp as part of an estate. The included instructions indicate that this tool was originally intended to be used with an analog AC instrument with a sensitivity of 5000 ohms per volt containing either a 2.5, 3, or 5 volt scale. There is a multiplication factor that is then used to calculate the total amps depending on the volt scale used.
Can this tool be used with a digital multimeter? The scales on my meter are much broader that 2.5, 3, 5 volts AC.
