    Abstract: A multi-meter performs multiple measurement functions and includes a housing with a longitudinal axis and a measurement display. The multi-meter further includes a clamp arm type current measuring instrument. The clamp arms are generally aligned with the longitudinal axis of the multi-meter housing. The multi-meter also includes a non-contact infrared temperature measurement device contained in a module attached to the stationary clamp arm of the current measuring instrument. The module is arranged so that the non-contact infrared temperature measurement instrument receives a cone of infrared energy along the longitudinal axis and the cone of infrared energy is not obstructed by the housing or clamp arms.
