>Inaccuracy of Trace metering? I guess so.

	Jack;

	As I've said before the Trace AC metering bites big time. I installed a
dedicated current sense loop connected to a calibrated analog meter so I
can see what the real current is. It's particularly bad at lower amps.
where the percentage of error is much more noticable. Example, Trace says 4
amps, amp-clamp, dedicated analog meter and Fluke set to AC amps in-circuit
all say 6 amps. Don't trust the on-board display, I say!!!
