What is a Multimeter?
One of the most common electrical measuring instrument, a multimeter is an electronic instrument designed to measure two or more electrical values, most commonly voltage, current and resistance. The instrument contains two test leads and their corresponding input jacks. The leads are placed on an electrical circuit to create the readings displayed on the readout, most commonly digital.

Why is multimeter calibration necessary?
Multimeter calibration ensures accurate readings, which are critical for safety, compliance, and reliable measurements in electrical testing and troubleshooting.
How often is multimeter calibration needed?
The frequency of multimeter calibration depends on its use and environment. It is common to calibrate once per year, but a heavily used multimeter should be calibrated more often.
Can I perform my own multimeter calibration?
You could, but the equipment needed is costly. It is often the right economical choice to turn to a multimeter calibration service provider, such as Fox Valley Metrology.
What is the process for calibrating a multimeter?
Calibration involves comparing the multimeter’s measurements to a known standard (typically a multifunction calibrator) across the full range of its measurement functions (typically at least voltage, current and resistance).
How much does it cost to calibrate a multimeter?
Costs vary based on the type of multimeter, its accuracy and functions. To get a precise estimate, contact us for a quote today.
Can I calibrate a multimeter myself?
DIY calibration is generally not recommended, as it requires specialized equipment that is quite expensive.
What are the risks of using an uncalibrated multimeter?
An uncalibrated multimeter can give inaccurate readings, potentially leading to improper troubleshooting, safety hazards, or equipment damage.
How long does multimeter calibration take?
We offer a 3-5 day average turnaround for multimeter calibration, with faster options upon request.
How do I know if my multimeter needs calibration?
Signs include inconsistent readings, exposure to extreme conditions, or if it hasn’t been calibrated within the recommended timeframe.
Is your multimeter calibration ISO 17025 accredited?
Yes. We provide ISO 17025 accredited multimeter calibrations on all calibrations.
Is your multimeter calibration traceable to national standards?
Yes. We provide NIST traceable multimeter calibrations on all calibrations.
