Thank you, Tim. Have you had any success with clamp-on amp meters for small loadsIJ We have used one for starter current draw but havent tried it on small loads like you are talking about.
Yes, but those won't read in low enuff graduation. A motor going bad will still run but if one reads 12 amps vs. 3 amps you know you has better replace it or face the down time later. Small motors typically run 3-4 amps. Also remember as the voltage goes down the amps go up and vice versa. lamps pull 1-3 amps at 12.8V. Clutches pull 3 to 4 amps @- sep and header and AC. Just random stuff FYI.
