Answer (2)

Among the listed devices, a multimeter is the only one not considered an arcing device, as it is used to measure electrical properties and does not create arcs during its operation. In contrast, circuit breakers, fuses, and relay contacts can all create arcs. Therefore, the multimeter does not fall into the category of arcing devices. ;
