A Gauss Meter is a scientific instrument used to measure the strength and direction of magnetic fields. It quantifies the magnetic flux density, typically in units called Gauss or Tesla. This device is essential in various fields, including physics, engineering, and environmental studies, where understanding magnetic fields is crucial. Gauss Meters come in different types, such as handheld and digital models, making them versatile for both laboratory and fieldwork. They often feature a probe that detects magnetic fields, allowing users to assess the influence of electromagnetic sources, such as power lines or electronic devices, on their surroundings.
