The DT4200 series comprise of 7 models, including two multifunctional models for use in research and development of inverters and solar power systems, three standard models with functionality that has been optimized for on-site electrical work, and two pocket-sized models that combine enhanced portability with functionality that has been specialized for a range of applications. All models in the series feature a product design that maximizes operability and convenience to meet customer needs based on the product’s fundamental concept of empowering users to perform professional- In their evaluation comments, the judges who selected the DT4200 series noted: "The product is a line of digital multimeters that can be used in a variety of on-site electrical measurement applications. The instruments, which incorporate vertical and horizontal indentations to make it easy to wrap lead wires around them in either orientation in response to market research indicating that users tend to store the instrument by wrapping the lead wires around it with the test probes still attached, benefit from an easy-to-hold, stylish design that is not simply a square box. Shutters linked to the rotary switch used to select the function being used serve to close off measurement terminals that are not in use, preventing electric shocks and short-circuits caused by mistaken operation. Pocket models, which are designed so that they can be held with one hand, incorporate numerous creative touches such as a rotary switch designed so that it can be operated with one hand. We find that the products deliver exceptional designs that demonstrate even a common, widely used measuring instrument such as a digital multimeter can still be improved if designers put their minds to it."
