Mercury Multimeters

Mercury multimeters on this page cover circuit testing, mains current checks and network and USB cable tests. Choose from three digital multimeters (600.100UK, 600.101UK and 600.102UK), the true RMS 600.110UK smart meter, the 600.103UK and 600.113UK clamp-on meters for high power mains, the 600.107UK meter with a network and USB cable tester, and the 600.708UK red and black test leads for measurements up to 1000V and 20A.

Choosing Mercury Multimeters

Work out what you test day to day, then compare testing ranges, functions and extras.

Digital multimeters

The 600.100UK has eight functions across 32 testing ranges, among them continuity, transistor test and reading hold, and it sits in a shockproof rubber holster. The 600.101UK gives seven functions over 19 ranges and can also output a square wave testing signal, and the 600.102UK has six functions over 19 ranges.

Letting the meter decide

On the 600.110UK, connecting the probes is enough: the meter recognises current, voltage, resistance, capacitance or continuity and shows the result in the correct format. It reads true RMS, detects AC voltage without contact in switches, circuit breakers, cables and light fixtures, and adds a torch function and a backlight on its 1.25" 4 digit LCD for darker spaces.

Mains current

The clamp-on 600.103UK and 600.113UK let high power mains be measured safely. The 600.103UK has five test functions across eight test ranges, with data hold and continuity, and is packed with a zipped carry bag; the 600.113UK adds true RMS and eight smart functions, with a 1" backlit display.

Network and USB cables

For data cabling, the 600.107UK joins a professional multimeter to a cable tester whose remote unit checks RJ11, RJ12, RJ45 and USB. As a meter the 600.107UK measures 2V-600V AC, 200mV-600V DC and 10A AC/DC, with diode and continuity functions and a backlit 1999 count LCD.

Spare leads

The 600.708UK is a red and black pair of multimeter test leads rated for measurements up to 1000V and 20A.

Frequently asked questions

Which Mercury meter can measure capacitance?

The smart 600.110UK and the smart clamp 600.113UK measure capacitance, alongside current, voltage, resistance and continuity. They recognise which of these is connected and display it in the correct format with no manual selection. They also read true RMS and have a non-contact voltage test function, auto power off and a low battery indicator.

Can a Mercury multimeter detect voltage without touching the wire?

Yes, the 600.110UK and 600.113UK have a non-contact voltage test function that safely detects the presence of AC voltage in switches, circuit breakers, cables, light fixtures and more. The 600.110UK adds a torch function for darker environments, and on the 600.113UK the test sits alongside a clamp-on feature that lets high power mains be measured safely.

Which Mercury meter checks RJ45 and USB cables?

The 600.107UK does, through a network and USB cable test function with a remote unit for RJ11, RJ12, RJ45 and USB. It is also a professional digital multimeter with 23 testing ranges and 6 functions, a backlit 1999 count display and a low battery indicator, and the 600.107UK comes in a shockproof rubber holster with a 9V PP3 battery.

Should I choose the 600.103UK or the 600.113UK clamp meter?

Choose the 600.113UK if you want true RMS and smart functions that pick the measurement, or the 600.103UK for a clamp-on meter with 8 test ranges and 5 test functions. The 600.103UK has data hold and continuity and comes with a zipped carry bag, while the 600.113UK has a non-contact voltage test, a 1" backlit LCD and 2x AAA batteries.

What are the 600.708UK test leads rated for?

The 600.708UK is a pair of red and black multimeter test leads for measurements up to 1000V and 20A. Note that each meter on this page already comes with shrouded test leads or probes, and the 600.100UK, 600.107UK and 600.110UK are also supplied in a shockproof rubber holster.
