Description

Introduction Hioki 3288 AC/DC Clamp Meter

The Hioki 3288 AC/DC Clamp Meter gives Bangladesh electricians and technicians a compact tool for one-touch maintenance on AC and DC equipment.

Astzbd supplies this clamp meter to panel installers, plant engineers, and testing labs across Dhaka, Chattogram, and Sylhet.

The meter handles current, voltage, and resistance checks with a single device, so technicians carry fewer tools into the field.

Its slim 35 mm jaw reaches conductors inside crowded distribution boards, and its 150 g body fits easily into a technician’s kit.

Consequently, teams complete routine maintenance faster while they maintain accurate, repeatable readings on every job.

Key Features 1000A Digital Clamp Meter

1. The clamp meter measures AC and DC current across 100.0 A and 1000 A ranges, so it covers small loads and heavy industrial circuits alike.
2. It also measures AC and DC voltage from 419.9 mV to 600 V across five ranges, which supports both control-circuit and mains-level checks.
3. A dedicated resistance range spans 419.9 Ω to 41.99 MΩ across six ranges, and a built-in buzzer confirms continuity below 50 Ω.
4. The 35 mm slim-core jaw opens with an independent double-lever design, so technicians clamp conductors in tight panels without disturbing neighboring wires.
5. A large 4199-count LCD refreshes 2.5 times per second, therefore readings stay legible even in dim switchgear rooms.
6. Data hold and auto power save extend battery life, and a single CR2032 coin cell powers up to 60 hours of continuous use.
7. The meter weighs only 150 g and measures 180 mm in length, so it travels comfortably in a shirt pocket or tool pouch.

 

Applications Hioki Clamp On HiTester

1. Technicians use the clamp meter to check load currents in electrical installations, distribution panels, and machine connections.
2. Maintenance teams rely on it for high-current checks on UPS emergency batteries and train motor circuits.
3. Electricians apply it during routine inspection of motor connections, since it reads both AC and DC current without opening the circuit.
4. Facility engineers use the resistance and continuity functions to trace wiring faults in commercial and industrial buildings.
5. Field crews carry the meter for voltage verification on control panels before they proceed with equipment servicing.
6. Solar and battery technicians measure DC current on charge controllers and battery banks with confidence.
7. Quality teams in Dhaka, Chattogram, and Sylhet use the meter for incoming inspection of imported electrical equipment.
