Data record `instr.clamp-meter.principle`

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: Medium

A clamp meter measures current from the magnetic field around a conductor: the hinged jaw closes around one conductor and the meter converts the sensed field to a current reading without the circuit being disconnected or de-energized.
