Hello Wrenches, I've started doing some work on 1,000 VDC systems so I need to upgrade my meters. What I'd really like is a clamp-on amp meter that is rated for 1,500 VDC but they don't seem to exist. I want to get something now that I won't have to upgrade in a few years if I end up working on 1,500 VDC systems.
The only 1,500 VDC meter I've found are the Amprobe HD160C which is a multi-meter (not clamp-on amp meter) that is rated for 1,500 VDC but can only measure up to 2 A with their amp clamp attachment. The other option is the Seaward Solar Utility Pro but I don't have that much money in the budget. Is it worth getting a 1,500 VDC meter or is 1,000 VDC enough? What are you techs in the field using?
