The ABCs of multimeter safety

21 August, 2008

Regarding safety, choosing a multimeter is like choosing a motorcycle helmet – if you have a 'ten-dollar' head, choose a 'ten-dollar' helmet. If you value your head, get a safe helmet. The same applies to multimeters – if you value your life, choose one that protects you accordingly. So, as long as you choose a multimeter with a high enough voltage rating, you're safe, right? Not exactly.
