Introduction

UT56 is one type of UNI-T brand new UT50 series
Multimeters with 4 1/2 digits, which has steady
function and is a highly reliable hand-held measuring
instrument. The Meter uses large scale of integrated
circuit with double integrated A/D converter as its
core and has full range overload protection. The
Meter can measure DC current, AC current, DC
Voltage, AC Voltage, Resistance, Capacitance,
Diode, Transistor, Frequency and Continuity Beeper,
which is an ideal measuring tool for users.
