Data record instr.clamp-meter.hall-effect-jaw

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

A Hall-effect clamp places a semiconductor sensor in a small air gap in the jaw; the flux crossing the gap produces a sensor voltage that is amplified and scaled to a current reading, so the clamp measures both direct and alternating current and is zeroed before a measurement to remove offsets from the Earth's field and nearby magnets.
