Yes but the meter has to go in series with the load. There is a new clamp on amp meter being introduced, that will measure larger DC amperages without opening the circuit.

You can use a DC ammeter.


Can DC ampere be measured with AC amp meter?

No. The ammeter must be designed to measure DC. Some clamp-on ammeters are designed to measure both AC and DC.


Which energy meter is required for calculating DC?

Most volt/amp meters have a DC mode. You measure DC voltage by putting the two probes across the voltage source. You measure current by either putting the meter in series with the load or using a clamp on amp meter that measures current flow through induction.

What VOM range would be selected to measure a DC current in milliamps?

The lowest amperage range on the VOM should be used to measure milliamps. To get a very accurate reading a digital VOM should be used as an analogue VOM usually loads the line that it is reading.
