Who is Kyoritsu and what does it make?
Kyoritsu (Kyoritsu Electrical Instruments Works) is a Japanese manufacturer of electrical measuring instruments and test equipment, with a range centred on digital multimeters and clamp meters for electricians and technicians. The portfolio also includes insulation testers, earth resistance testers, voltage testers, power meters with data logging, thermometers, lux meters and adapters for testing electric vehicle charging stations (EVSE). For the Romanian market we can quote from the range of multimeters and clamp meters used in industrial electrical installations.
What sets Kyoritsu apart is its narrow, deep specialisation in electrical measuring instruments. In multimeters and clamp meters, Kyoritsu has a portfolio oriented towards electrical safety — testing insulation, earthing and installations before they are energised — recently complemented by adapters for testing electric charging infrastructure.
In Romania, the Kyoritsu range makes sense for licensed electricians, companies that carry out periodic verification of electrical installations and industrial maintenance teams who need measuring instruments for safety checks, not just for general diagnosis.
What do we supply from the Kyoritsu range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Digital Multimeters | Multimeters for measuring voltage, current and resistance in electrical installations, used by electricians for diagnosis and routine checks. The range runs from basic models to variants with extended safety functions. For a quotation we need the measuring range required and the specific application. |
| Clamp Meters | Instruments for measuring current without interrupting the circuit, by clamping the instrument's jaws around the conductor, useful for quick diagnosis in switchboards or on industrial lines. To be specified: the current range measured and whether measurement is needed on alternating current, direct current or both. |
| Insulation and Earth Resistance Testers | Instruments for checking the insulation resistance of cables and the earthing before an installation is energised, mandatory for the acceptance and periodic verification of electrical installations. Typical application for licensed electrical inspection companies. |

How do we supply Kyoritsu in Romania?
For Kyoritsu instruments we confirm the exact availability in the quotation; we rely entirely on the manufacturer's technical documentation. We bring in multimeters and clamp meters to order through supply channels in the EU, usually in 1–4 weeks for the model and quantity requested. The customer must send us the measuring range required and the exact application (installation verification, industrial diagnosis or EVSE testing) so that we can choose the right instrument. For more specialised models we do not hold constant stock, and we recommend confirming the lead time before tying it to a fixed verification date.
Metrological calibration of an existing instrument and periodic calibration of Kyoritsu instruments are carried out in specialised laboratories.
Frequently asked questions about Kyoritsu
What is the difference between the Kyoritsu KEW 1011 and KEW 1030 multimeters?
Both belong to the manufacturer's range of basic digital multimeters, intended for routine voltage, current and resistance measurements in electrical installations. The differences between the models in the KEW 10xx series are given in the individual manufacturer data sheets. We recommend checking the exact data sheet of each model before choosing, especially if the instrument replaces an existing one.
What is the Kyoritsu KEW MATE series?
KEW MATE is a name Kyoritsu uses for some of its digital multimeters, such as models 2000A and 2001A, oriented towards everyday use in electrical work. The series complements the numbered KEW 10xx range, and the exact differences in functions between variants are found in the data sheets published by the manufacturer. The choice between them depends on the measuring functions needed daily.
What should I send for a quotation on Kyoritsu measuring instruments?
A list of the exact codes wanted is useful, for example KEW 1052 or KEW 1109S, together with the quantity needed for each model. If the aim is to replace an existing instrument, the full name on its case helps avoid confusion between closely related models in the KEW family. Stating the field of use, general electrical work or industrial applications, helps confirm the suitable model quickly.
Do you supply Kyoritsu measuring instruments in Romania?
Yes, we bring in to order multimeters and other measuring instruments from the Kyoritsu portfolio, starting from the exact code of the model wanted. Instruments in this range reach us only after the order is placed, as they are not kept on the shelf; to order, usually in 1–4 weeks from order confirmation. We recommend confirming the full model name before sending the quotation request.
How do I request a Kyoritsu quotation?
Send the Kyoritsu code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
