The only way you will know that your multimeter is accurate is by
having it calibrated against a known standard, ideally specified
to 10x better than your meter.

Or by using it to measure a known current on a bulb I know draws a
certain current.


So your comparison standard is something British Gas used to give
away for free, possible so inaccurate that it hasn't got a
published specification for its current measuring capability.

**** off Hucker.

I don't see any useful information from you.... do you even know what a
