Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, the right multimeter can save time, boost safety, and improve accuracy. Here are the top 7 multimeters for 2025 in Bangladesh. A complete guide is for you. Let’s dive into everything you need to know.

What to Know Before Buying a Multimeter

Before picking a multimeter, you need to know your needs.

• What do you want to measure?
• How often will you use it?
• What’s your budget?

Look for easy controls, a bright display, and extra features like auto-ranging or data hold.

Most people buy one multimeter and use it for years. So take your time to choose wisely.

 

What Are the Types of Multimeters?

Multimeters come in two main types:

Analog Multimeters:

• Use a moving needle
• Good for watching slow voltage changes
• Less accurate but very simple

Digital Multimeters (DMMs):

• Show numbers on a screen
• More accurate and faster
• Many modern models have extra features

Digital is now the most common type.

Multimeter Functions Explained

Multimeters can do more than check voltage. Here are the main functions:

• Voltage (AC/DC)
• Current (Amps)
• Resistance (Ohms)
• Continuity (with buzzer)
• Diode Test
• Capacitance
• Frequency Measurement

Advanced models may also check temperature or even connect to apps via Bluetooth.

Understanding Multimeter Accuracy

Accuracy means how close a reading is to the real value. A good digital multimeter should have accuracy within ±0.5% to ±1% for voltage.

Higher accuracy is better for electronics work, but a basic model will do for simple home use.

Multimeter Resolution and Range

Resolution tells how small a value the multimeter can show.

Example: A multimeter with 0.1V resolution will show 9.1V, not just 9V.

The range is how much it can measure. Auto-ranging models pick the best range for you, while manual ones let you choose it.

What Is Input Impedance?

This tells how much the multimeter resists current flow.

Higher input impedance is better, especially for electronics.

Most digital multimeters have 10MΩ input impedance, which is great for safe and accurate readings.

CAT Ratings for Safety

CAT Ratings show how safe the multimeter is:

• CAT I: Small electronics
• CAT II: Household tools
• CAT III: Industrial wiring
• CAT IV: Outdoor use

Always choose the right CAT rating for your work to avoid shocks or damage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Which multimeter is best for beginners?

The AstroAI AM33D is ideal for beginners due to its simple interface, low price, and reliable performance for basic tasks.

Can I use a multimeter to test car batteries?

Yes. Models like the INNOVA 3320 are perfect for automotive use, including checking car batteries, alternators, and wiring.

What is the difference between auto-ranging and manual multimeters?

Auto-ranging multimeters select the correct range automatically, while manual ones require you to choose the range yourself. Auto-ranging is easier for most users.

Is it safe to use a multimeter at home?

Yes, as long as you use a multimeter with the right CAT rating (CAT II or CAT III) and follow basic safety rules, it’s perfectly safe for home use.

Do I need a true RMS multimeter?

True RMS is needed if you work with non-linear loads like variable-speed motors or inverters. For basic tasks, it’s not essential.

Can a multimeter measure temperature?

Only some models (like KAIWEETS HT118A) have a temperature measurement feature, usually with a thermocouple probe.
