The Mastech MS8268 is a 4000-count auto/manual ranging digital multimeter. It measures AC/DC voltage up to 1000V DC, AC/DC current up to 10A, resistance, capacitance, frequency, duty cycle, diodes and transistor hFE. Its sound and light jack warning helps prevent wrong-input mistakes, it has a backlit LCD, and it carries a CAT II 1000V / CAT III 600V safety rating.
