Questions about clamp meters
Clamp meters are good for measuring higher currents. Standard multimeters can typically measure current but require breaking the circuit and are good for measuring amplitudes less than an amp ( milli or micro amps).  Some clamp meters have almost as many features and ranges beyond current by attaching leads-  allowing you to measure voltage and ohms. Make a list of your requirements and then compare your list to meter specifications and capabilities.  The only defining requirement for me is if I need to measure milliamperes,  which typically clamp meters don’t have good resolution and standard multimeters are better suited for.
