will it measure dc amps through the clamp

Hmmm... well, yes it sure did do that. However I returned the one I ordered because I needed to read down to 50 ma and up to 500 ma mostly. The 376 didn't have that capability. It measured tenths of amps as I recall. I bought a different make and model and am very happy with it. It is: GTC CM100 1 mA to 100 Amps AC/DC Low Current Clamp Meter Sold by Amazon.com LLC for about $140. GL Bob W5UQ ........ PS I wonder why I'm getting your question and not someone at Amazon or the Fluke factory? :-)

It will read up to 100amp if current continuious, I have it hooked up to an ACC unit to monitor usage

This tester will show any voltage across its probes, AC or DC. So, the answer is yes, it will register 3.6 if your battery is good. It is a good tester, the only downside being the letters around the dial are in dark ink on a dark background. You may need a flashlight to set the dial.

Will this meter measure the DC current being drawn (like, from a battery)? YES!Just remember, it is a digital meter, so it is better suited to measure steady current. If the current fluctuates, the digital readout may look to be jumping all over the place.

Yes it shld read dc AC Current 0-40/400 AACAC Voltage 0-400/600 VACDC Voltage 0-400/600 VDCResistance 0-400/4KOHMContinuity: Sounds at 100OhmsFrom the detailed description

It gives a running digital reading of amperage AC current, not DC. It has no capture capability for highest amperage event, your eyeballs have to do that. It does give quick readings however on a continuous basis if amps are selected, or watts, or volts or cycles per second or kwh.

Yes it will. AC or DC. Just clamp unit around positive conductor and select proper current on meter.

Not sure I use if for a solar power pack. Measure voltage of battery and the draw from the battery

Yes. It will measure and calculate cost of only the electricity passing through the sensors. For example it could measure only the power used by an air conditioning unit if it was mounted on the wires going only to the AC unit. Power used by the rest of the house would not be measured.

Measures AC/DC Voltage up to 1000V, AC/DC current, resistance, frequency, capacitance, temperature, and duty cycle

Put a good multimeter on the out put leads and spin it. you will read DC volts with NO ac COMPONENT. ww

I don't have a current clamp for my multimeter to measure it, nor the schematics of the device to assess whether or not it it would draw any current. If I lost any electrons then I would be positive!

I don't know what you want this gauge to do. IT measure amps volts, wattage. load, and Cycle. It doesn't know how many AH Capacity your batter is. Hope this helps RC

It will measure to .001a/AC-DC but will not calculate amp hours. Milli amps yes.

No, it cannot. In order to use the probes for a current measurement a shunt would be provided across the black and red terminals which would make the voltmeter useless. If your looking for a clamp-probe type meter that will also perform inline current measurements, look for a meter that has three probe terminals. The third terminal is used with a built-in shunt thus allowing current measurements using the supplied probes. Hope this helps.

Yes; we're using it with a 200amp service. The ct clamps are plenty large enough to fit and it still provides accurate readings.

Yes, it measures AC voltage. I am not sure what the second part of your question means. AC and DC are totally different beasts. If you have AC you can't probe for DC, and if you have DC you can't probe for AC-- this is true regardless of your meter, unless there are meters that can automatically detect that your current is one or the other. In the US, your device will receive AC and will either supply AC or DC or both to different parts of your circuit. Part of most consumer electronics is a power supply that converts AC from your wall outlet to DC. To convert DC to AC you could use an alternator. I hope some of this information is what you are after! Yes, it measures AC voltage. I am not sure what the second part of your question means. AC and DC are totally different beasts.
