Cheap mean electronic means "High Impedance".

It is thusly designated because its design seriously impedes fault finding by the sloppy.

On the plus side it does means that the sloppy are far more likely to 'find' a voltage on the load side of a high resistance fault where it usefully isn't so unless stupid as well as sloppy then no more dangerous than a proper moving coil meter.
