Customer Questions & Answers

What specific benefits does True RMS measurement offer in the Victor VC980+ multimeter compared with traditional models?

True RMS measurement provides accurate AC voltage and current readings, even on non-sinusoidal or distorted signals, where standard multimeters may produce errors. This is essential when working with modern electronic devices that generate complex waveforms.

What are the dimensions, total weight and items included in the multimeter box?

The Victor VC980+ multimeter measures 190 x 88.5 x 27.5 mm and weighs approximately 320 grams, including the battery. The package typically includes the multimeter itself, test leads, a protective rubber holster and a 6F22 9V battery. This may vary, so it is recommended to check with the supplier.

What are the measurement limits for current and voltage in both AC and DC, and what accuracy is stated?

For DC voltage: up to 1000 V (±0.05%) and for AC: up to 700 V (±0.8%). For DC current: up to 20 A (±0.5%) and AC: up to 20 A (±1.5%). These figures describe the instrument’s maximum range, and the accuracy is valid under standard environmental conditions and correct calibration.

Are there protections against overloads or common operating faults, and how do they work?

The unit includes full overload protection on all ranges through resettable fuses and internal circuits designed to cut off measurement in the event of excess, as well as visual and audible alerts for incorrect connection or wrong inputs. This minimises risk and damage to the instrument.

What preventive maintenance is required, and what is the estimated service life under normal use?

It is recommended to clean the terminals regularly, check the condition of the leads and replace the 6F22 (9V) battery when indicated. Service life can exceed 5 years under standard use and non-aggressive environments, assuming basic maintenance and avoiding repeated overloads.

What does True RMS mean on this multimeter?

True RMS means the multimeter measures the real effective value of AC current and voltage signals, even if they are not sinusoidal, providing more accurate readings in real-world conditions.

What types of measurements can this Victor VC980+ multimeter perform?

It can measure DC and AC voltage, DC and AC current, resistance, capacitance and frequency, as well as perform diode, transistor and audible continuity tests.

What type of battery does the multimeter use?

It uses one 9V 6F22 battery for power.

Is it suitable for professional or home use?

It is suitable for both, for electronics professionals as well as domestic and industrial electrical maintenance.

Does the multimeter have overload protection?

Yes, it has full overload protection through a circuit with a resettable fuse for added safety.
