Never known of a clamp style dc amp meter. Check dc amperage by running through meter leads. Am i wrong?
there are lots of DC clamp on amp meters available. the measure current using a hall effect device. I've been on the design teams for many such current probes. Decades ago they were very expensive. today good ones are pretty readily available.
The best ones do ACrms, DC or ACRMS+DC current.
A good one will also have a peak hold function to record peak currents, as well as min max delta currents.
