A multifunction measuring instrument used for measuring AC and DC voltage [V] and current [A] as well as resistance [Ω]. Many digital multimeters can also measure frequency [Hz], duty cycle [%], capacitance [F], temperature [°C], and/or other electrical or physical properties. Most are handheld; more expensive bench models are also available for applications requiring high precision.
