The Wavetek 27XT is a handheld digital multimeter engineered for electrical and electronic troubleshooting across industrial, field service, and maintenance environments. It delivers 11 functions across 32 measurement ranges, including AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, and inductance, plus diode and continuity testing. The 3.5-digit LCD with 0.7-inch characters and 2.5 Hz update rate displays measurements clearly in high-noise environments.
