Megger MMC850 Multi-core AC digital clamp meter

The new Megger MMC850 offers a unique solution to current measurement in multi-core cables, without the need to cores. Simply clamp the MMC850 to a multicore cable and read the current flowing. A single button switches the clamp between multi-core and single core operation to save an optimal amount of time and ensure that the instrument is both convenient and easy to use. This dual function is possible through Megger’s patented design, which, unlike conventional clamp meters, has a complex array of Planer magnetic sensor coils to calculate the current flowing in the conductors of multi-core cables with 2 or 3 cores, and in either flat or round section cable up to 100 A.

The instrument is handy for general maintenance work in electrical machinery and installations, portable appliance testing, and when commissioning. It is also invaluable in diversification calculation verification, confirming a faulty ring-main, and in most applications where users would use a traditional clamp meter.

With a backlit display and a durable, lightweight clamphead, the instrument makes it easy to access awkward locations and cables. The inner jaw clamp also centralizes cables to ensure the most accurate test possible. A contoured design gives users a comfortable grip with a positive finger guard.
