Fluke Industrial 115 True Rms Multimeter

Product Information

For people who develop circuitry for lower-power applications or need a multimeter with microamp measurement for different reasons, the Fluke 177 is the next best option. This calculation method gives accurate results for both pure and non-pure sinusoidal waves. So regardless of what type of AC waveforms you measure, you can be sure that the reported voltage is on point. MIN/MAX/AVG As Savage also mentions in the video, the original 77 meter wasn’t the most budget-friendly option. The best budget multimeter for electronics inside Adam Savage’s cave is a Fluke 101 (since updated to the Fluke 107 Palm-sized multimeter), which, according to Savage, he used on the set of MythBusters. He even shows off the paint covering the Fluke logo which they hid during filming. Best tools to have In practice, I found the dial to be way too stiff for this. My hands are above average in size and strength, and I was not able to reliably turn the dial with my thumb. There simply is not enough grip to overcome the resistance of the wheel, especially if the thumb or wheel are a bit sweaty or greasy.

Many cheaper digital multimeters are of questionable quality and do not have the right overload protection to protect you when something goes wrong. If you want to be safe when working on higher voltage (120V/240V) electronics, the Fluke 115 will help you with that. FAQ Where is the Fluke 115 made? Fluke TL175 TwistGuard™ Test Leads - feature adjustable probe tip guards that allow you to customise the exposed probe length for safety and versatility, deal for measurements in hard-to-reach areas.All ac voltage ranges except Auto-V/LoZ are specified from 1 % to 100 % of range. Auto-V/LoZ is specified from 0.0 V. Either way, the TL-75 probes are PVC-insulated, stiffer and have more of a ‘memory’ effect. The TL-71 have silicone insulation and are more flexible. Silicone leads are typically preferred. You can detach the holster when you need to swap the multimeter’s batteries or its fuse, but other than that there is not much reason to ever remove it. Test leads

When it comes to precision measurement and electrical testing, Fluke multimeter test leads are an indispensable component in any professional toolkit. Fluke, a renowned leader in electronic testing tools, offers a wide range of Fluke leads designed to enhance accuracy, safety, and efficiency during testing procedures. These high-quality test leads are engineered to deliver reliable results and withstand the rigors of demanding industrial and commercial environments. Their offer includes silicone multimeter test leads, automotive multimeter test leads, basic leads and test lead kits comprising on various leads and clips. Popular Fluke Multimeter Leads include:

The included test leads are okay, but their major limitation is that they do not have proper strain relief. You can expect them to wear out sooner than expected if you wrap, bend or pull them too often. Fluke is one of the best multimeter brand on the market. With the Fluke brand multimeters, you will not only get accurate results but also have lots of advanced features. Fluke 115 and Fluke 117 have lots of similarities. Actually, both multimeter features are almost the same. Another difference is that the 117 multimeter has an automatic selection of ac/dc volts, while the 115 doesn’t have. Apart from that, these two are great devices that will offer you accurate results every time you use the gadget. While the Fluke 115’s price is at the higher end of the spectrum, the multimeter does deliver in return. You can trust its measurements to be accurate, its robust construction to last and perhaps most importantly, unlike cheaper multimeters it does not pose any danger when something goes wrong.
