Description
Megger AVO215 CAT III True-RMS Digital Multimeter overview
With True-RMS technology, the AVO215 delivers accurate AC voltage and current readings even on non-linear, distorted, or fluctuating waveforms. Megger specifies the AC voltage response at 50/60 Hz for all waveforms and from 45 Hz to 1 kHz for sine waves, so treat readings on drive outputs outside that band with care. In addition to AC/DC voltage and current, it supports resistance, continuity with buzzer, diode testing, and frequency measurement—allowing professionals to consolidate multiple tools into one compact device.
The 4000-count backlit LCD display ensures clear visibility in any environment, while intuitive controls and advanced functions such as Data Hold and Max/Min capture streamline daily testing. With CAT III 600 V safety compliance and robust housing resistant to impact, the AVO215 provides confidence when working on distribution panels, switchgear, and industrial circuits.
MME (MOHAMMAD MAHDI Electronics Trading LLC) can help you compare the AVO215 with larger Megger meters such as the AVO410 or AVO830 before you order.
Who the Megger AVO215 is for
The Megger AVO215 is a pocket meter for electricians, HVAC and facilities technicians and apprentices who mostly work on CAT III circuits up to 600 V and want capacitance, frequency and duty cycle without carrying a larger meter. Its high-contrast negative display with backlight, and the flashlight on the HOLD button, help in plant rooms and ceiling voids.

Megger AVO215 Applications
The Megger AVO215 Multimeter fits these everyday jobs:
-
Industrial maintenance – checking supply and control voltages, fuses and continuity on motors and switchgear (for drive outputs, use the AVO415 with its VFD mode)
-
HVAC systems – checking control voltages, continuity and capacitor values up to 4000 µF
-
Commercial electricians – panel testing, troubleshooting circuits, and diagnostics
-
Automotive technicians – battery, alternator, and electrical fault detection
-
Educational labs – training future engineers and technicians with safe tools
Megger AVO215 FAQ
Questions buyers ask about the Megger AVO215:
- Is the Megger AVO215 true RMS? Yes. All AC voltage and current functions are true RMS; Megger specifies 50/60 Hz for any waveform and 45 Hz to 1 kHz for sine waves.
- What safety rating does the Megger AVO215 have? CAT III 600 V to IEC 61010. For CAT IV locations such as the supply intake, use a CAT IV-rated meter.
- Can the AVO215 measure 20 A? Only briefly. The 10 A range accepts up to 20 A for a maximum of 30 seconds, at reduced accuracy. For continuous currents above 10 A, use a clamp meter such as the Megger DCM340.
- Does the AVO215 measure temperature? No. It covers voltage, current, resistance, continuity, diode, capacitance, frequency and duty cycle, with no temperature input.
