What this multimeter measures

The MS8268 is a digital multimeter with a 4000-count autoranging display. It measures AC and DC voltage, AC and DC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency and duty cycle. It also provides transistor hFE checks, diode tests and continuity testing. A backlit screen and data-hold function make readings easier to capture in varied lighting.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm that the CAT II 1000V and CAT III 600V safety ratings cover the circuits you intend to test. The unit ships without a battery, so you will need to supply a compatible cell before first use. Ensure the included test leads and multifunctional socket match the connection types required by your typical measurement tasks.

Build and everyday connections

The meter includes audible and visual warnings that activate when input plugs are inserted incorrectly, helping to prevent damage during hurried setups. A multifunctional test socket is supplied for transistor and component checks. The package contains the meter, test leads, the multifunctional socket and a user manual.

Questions about this item

Does the MASTECH MS8268 come with everything needed to start measuring, or must I buy test leads and a battery separately?

The package includes the MS8268 multimeter with test leads, a multifunctional test socket and a user manual. A 9V battery is not included and must be purchased separately.

The MS8268 is listed as a single 4000-count autoranging model — are there other count or ranging versions I should consider?

This listing is for the MS8268 with a 4000-count autoranging display. No other count or ranging variants are offered under this model number.

What does the CAT.II 1000V and CAT.III 600V safety rating mean when I use the MS8268 on mains circuits?

The rating means the meter is designed for measurements on circuits up to 1000V in CAT II environments (such as socket outlets) and up to 600V in CAT III environments (such as building distribution panels).
