PCE Instruments PCE-DC3 Digital Current Clamp 80A measurement tool

Non-contact current measurement

The PCE-DC3 is a digital clamp meter designed for indirect AC and DC current readings up to 80 amps without breaking the circuit. A built-in non-contact voltage detector helps locate live conductors and cable breaks. An integrated LED illuminates the measurement point in dark enclosures. The four-digit backlit LCD provides clear readings in low-light conditions.

Electricians and technicians needing quick clamp

Suits professionals who require a compact tool for spot-checking current in tight switch cabinets or cable ducts where probe access is limited. The automatic range selection and DCA zero function speed up repetitive measurements. Not intended for users who need to measure currents above 80 amps or who require true-RMS accuracy for distorted waveforms. Buyers needing data logging or Bluetooth connectivity should consider other instruments.

80 amp AC/DC measurement range

The clamp jaws accept conductors carrying up to 80 amps of alternating or direct current, which defines the upper limit of the tool’s core function. Automatic range selection adjusts the scale without manual intervention. The save button freezes the displayed value for recording. This single specification determines whether the meter matches the circuits you test.
