Compact HVACR Clamp Meter
The Fieldpiece SC260 is a compact clamp meter built for HVACR electrical service in hot and cold environments. It delivers True RMS voltage and current readings plus temperature and capacitance functions. A backlit display and non-contact voltage detection support everyday diagnostic work. The meter suits technicians who need a portable, all-in-one tool for field measurements.
Auto Select mode and swivel magnet
Auto Select mode automatically detects whether the user is measuring capacitance or resistance, removing the need to switch ranges manually. A sturdy swivel magnet attaches the meter to metallic surfaces for hands-free operation. Non-contact voltage detection, continuity warning and diode test add safety checks without extra accessories. These features reduce setup time on service calls.
Clamp-on measurement limits
As a clamp-on meter, the SC260 measures current without breaking the circuit, but it cannot measure DC current or in-circuit resistance the way lead-based multimeters can. Jaw size restricts the maximum conductor diameter that fits inside the clamp. True RMS accuracy applies to AC voltage and current only; other waveforms may read differently. Buyers who need DC current logging or bench-top precision should verify suitability before purchase.

Questions about this item
Will the clamp jaws or test leads need periodic replacement on the SC260?
The SC260 uses fixed clamp jaws and standard test leads; leads should be inspected for insulation damage and replaced if worn, while the jaws require no scheduled replacement.
What measurement range saturates first during continuous high-current HVACR work?
The SC260 handles up to 260 AAC; sustained loads near that limit will saturate the amperage reading before voltage or capacitance ranges are reached.
How much heat does the SC260 generate when left running all day on a service call?
The compact SC260 is designed for hot and cold environments and produces minimal internal heat during extended use; the backlight and True RMS circuitry draw low power from the battery.
