I use a Fluke meter, great to have.
I took a tip from an electrician I knew when he did some work on an old house for me. What he said was, "Plumbing, you can see the water, hear the water, and feel the water to know if you have issues. Electricity, not so much. Be careful." He actually said for DIY guys, work during the day if possible (so you can see) and then, turn the whole house off, just like you do with the water when doing plumbing.
