The Honeytek HK588E is a 5999-count True RMS AC/DC clamp meter designed for professional electrical, industrial, HVAC, and equipment maintenance. It measures AC/DC current up to 1000A, DC voltage up to 1000V, AC voltage up to 750V, resistance up to 60MΩ, capacitance up to 100mF, frequency up to 10MHz, duty cycle, and temperature from -20°C to 1000°C / 0°F to 1832°F.
Compared with lower-current models in the HK588 series, the HK588E adds a 1000A current range, higher voltage capability, 5999-count resolution, larger jaw size, and inrush current testing. It is built for technicians who need a more capable clamp meter for motors, distribution panels, HVAC systems, industrial equipment, and high-load electrical diagnostics.
