Current flow (amps) can be read with an inductive type meter as long as there is flow going on. In a DC circuit, there has to be a load for current to flow to it. For voltage, it has to have direct contact somewhere in the circuit with the other end of the meter to ground unless you are reading across a resistor to see the voltage drop of that resistor.
