Description

The E0302 is a digital multimeter, made by IEMI in Bucharest and designed at the ICE research institute [1].

ICE’s laboratory for electronic instruments for measuring electrical quantities designed all the institute’s generations of oscilloscopes, voltmeters, multimeters, signal generators, frequency meters, logic analysers, RLC bridges and stabilised AC power supplies; they went into production at IEMI or in ICE’s own microproduction workshop, and equipped industrial laboratories and production lines as well as teaching and research laboratories [1]. In the 1970s and 1980s about half of the components of measuring instruments were imported; after 1980 about three quarters were Romanian [1].

It measures DC and AC voltage and current, and resistance [2]. IEMI’s production table lists 10,553 units made in 1975–1985 [2].

Its list price, set in 1982, was 16,000 lei [3].

Annex III.2.8 calls it a precision instrument measuring DC voltage from 0.1 mV to 1000 V, AC voltage from 0.1 mV to 350 V (40 Hz – 20 kHz), DC and AC current from 0.1 µA to 1 A and resistance from 0.1 Ω to 2 MΩ, with a Nixie-tube display [4].
