| Key features
Higher resolution display: The CD800a2 features a 6000-count display, an improvement over the 4000-count display on the base CD800a model. This allows for more precise readings. True RMS measurement: This feature allows the meter to accurately measure non-sinusoidal AC waveforms, which are often found in modern electronics. Max/Min value hold: Captures and displays the maximum and minimum readings during a measurement period. Data hold, range hold, and relative function: These common features are included for convenience. Data hold freezes a reading on the display, range hold locks the measurement range, and the relative function zeros the display to show relative changes. Auto power-off: Helps conserve battery life, and this function can be disabled by the user. Protective body cover: The unit comes with a rugged body cover that protects it from damage and can also function as a tilt stand for hands-free use. CAT IV 600V safety rating: The CD800a2 is rated for CAT IV 600V applications, meaning it can be safely used for measurements on the low-voltage side of the electrical service entrance. |
