Current Clamps Calibration
Calibrationhouse provides expert calibration for current clamps, ensuring precise current measurement accuracy for electrical testing, diagnostics, and compliance.
What is a current clamp used for?
A current clamp, also known as a clamp meter, is used to measure electrical current in a conductor without direct contact. By clamping around a wire or cable, it allows technicians to take current readings without disconnecting or shutting down the system, making it a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional probes.
How do current clamps differ from standard multimeters?
Unlike standard multimeters, which require direct contact with a conductor, current clamps can measure high currents safely and without interruption. While they were originally designed to measure only current, modern clamp meters often include voltage and resistance measurement functions, making them versatile diagnostic tools.
What current levels can clamp meters measure?
Standard clamp meters can measure currents up to 600 Amperes, while more advanced models can measure up to 2000 Amperes. This makes them ideal for applications where high current levels need to be tested safely and efficiently.
Why is regular calibration important for current clamps?
Over time, measurement accuracy can drift due to environmental factors, wear, and frequent use. Annual calibration ensures that the clamp meter continues to meet manufacturer specifications, preventing incorrect readings that could impact electrical testing, diagnostics, and safety compliance.
Can Calibrationhouse perform on-site calibration for current clamps?
Yes, on-site calibration is available across the UK, allowing businesses to keep their current clamps in service with minimal disruption. Alternatively, calibration can be performed at our Durham-based laboratory for a rapid turnaround service.
For customers in the United States, current clamp calibration is available at our Tampa facility, ensuring compliance with BSI ISO9001-certified standards.
Does Calibrationhouse calibrate all brands of current clamps?
Yes, Calibrationhouse calibrates a wide range of makes and models, including our partner brand Seaward AC/DC Current Clamp, which is commonly used for solar installation testing. If you have a specific brand or model, contact us to confirm calibration availability.
