I have a need to measure current and fuse trip time and need to be portable. I suppose I can somehow rig it up to test at my workbench but would like the freedom to be portable.
Need to measure about 3-20 A @ 15V tops I'm guessing about few miliseconds to maybe 20mS tops - will put inline shunt. So a decent current measurement is needed
Two I would like to see the waveform as the fuse trips and be able to document the time and current...
If there are decent handheld oscilloscope or device to record this data... would be great if anyone can point me in the right direction. Will be doing some analysis by capturing this data over time... maybe a data logger???
What's the best way... is it better to use a current probe? Can this be achieved without spending tons?
Thanks,
Charlie
