• Large, tri-colored dial with mirrored scale to prevent parallax error

This member of the 260 family has a better than 30% improvement in voltage and resistance accuracy compared to the standard 260-8 Series, perfect for more critical measurements. DC voltage accuracy is +/-1.25% full scale; AC voltage accuracy +/-2% full scale; and Resistance accuracy +/-1.5 degree of arc. The 270-5 comes with batteries, manual and test leads with alligator clips; the 270-5RT also includes a built-in rolltop carrying case.
