Abstract
A portable measurement device includes an elongated body, a stationary portion fixedly mounted to a distal end, and a movable jaw movably mounted to the distal end and movable between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the movable jaw and the stationary portion form a closed loop with an inner diameter of less than or equal to 10 mm. Alternatively, at least one of the movable jaw and the stationary portion has a cross-sectional diameter of less than or equal to 5 mm. In the open position, the movable jaw and the stationary portion define a gap allowing a wire under test to pass therethrough into the loop. A switch drives the movable jaw between the closed and open positions. A measurement circuit electrically coupled to the stationary portion and the movable jaw to receive and measure a sensing current generated by the closed loop.
