Can I test an AC socket with this multimeter?

[JoostinOnline]

I don't know if my multimeter is designed to test up to 120V, and I don't want to fry it.  Can anyone tell me either way?

Someone said that the leads are too thicc for a socket

Its rated CAT II 1000V so the 120V will be fine

To clarify, CAT II is the maximum allowed voltage to be measured in a house (behind a safe box)

I'm gonna move this into the electronics section, not really anything to do with troubleshooting.  Also I think @iamdarkyoshi would know

There are insulation caps on it that are required for CAT III (for example electrical wiring from the electric company before the fuses).

If you remove those caps it should fit, tho that will make the leads maximum CAT II

Sorry about that.  I didn't know where to post it.  I looked through the subforums, but somehow missed hobby electronics.

Well the Voltage leads even say MAx750V so 120 will be ok

What are you trying to measure anyway? Why not just get a socket tester
