Measure voltage … without test leads

Measure voltage up to 1000 V ac due to FieldSense technology, which easily and quickly takes measurements by sliding a conductor through the open fork. Additionally, without opening covers or removing wire nuts, on wires up to AWG 4/0 (120 mm2), carrying as much as 200 A which makes the jobs safer, faster and easier.

Features

• FieldSense technology for ac voltage, current and frequency measurement without making electrical contact to live voltage
• Simultaneous voltage and current display shows all power supply measurements at a glance for efficient troubleshooting
• 1 to 1000 V ac or dc
• 0.1 to 200 A ac
• Resistance 1 Ω to 100 kΩ
• Frequency measurement 45 to 66 Hz
• Works with wires up to AWG 4/0 (120 mm2) with a 0.7" (17.8 mm) jaw opening
• Hold button temporarily freezes the reading for easy viewing
• Easy to read display with backlight

Why use this electrical tester?

Electricians often work in boxes jammed with wires, where finding a safe metallic contact point can be a challenge. With this tester they can take measurements by sliding a single wire into the open fork.

How FieldSense works

FieldSense technology is truly a breakthrough in how voltage is measured. While other open fork testers detect a magnetic field to show ac current, FieldSense technology detects an electrical field. This field interacts with a reference signal created by the tester, creating a voltage value on the tester's display.

Tips: FieldSense technology

Do not hold or touch wire you are testing during a measurement. Use the black probe to make the ground connection if:

• Wearing gloves or insulated footwear
• Standing on an insulated ladder
• Additional ground contact is required for the application

FieldSense measurement looks like this when probably grounded:

• Display color turns green
• Display shows a valid measurement >16 V rather than dashes or 0.0
• Shows for measurement ≥30 V

Applications

• Commercial and light industry

Fluke PRV240FS Proving Unit

Reduces the need for personal protective equipment (PPE) when a known voltage source is not available for verification (PPE is still needed for absence of voltage testing when appropriate).

Features

• Sources both ac and dc steady-state voltage - supplies 240 V dc/ac
• A single LED indicates functionality, making this unit a simple-to-use solution for verification of your test tool
• Compatible with both high impedance or low impedance multimeters, clamp meters or two pole testers
• Voltage is sourced through recessed contacts that are activated when tested probes are inserted to avoid accidental contact
• Long battery life - 5000 tests per set of four AA batteries

Solving Electrical Problems with Fluke Thermal Imaging

Today’s thermal imagers have become a realistic solution for everyday electrical maintenance as they are rugged, easy to use, and much more affordable than even just a few years ago. It's a straight-forward process, where a qualified technician or electrician points the thermal imager at the equipment in question and scans the immediate area, looking for unexpected hot spots. The imager produces a live image of the heat emitted from the equipment and with the quick squeeze of the trigger, a thermal image is captured. When the inspection is complete, the image is uploaded to a computer, Apple®, iPhone® or iPad® for closer analysis, reporting, and future trending.

There are a few basic how-tos to consider... electrical load, safety, and emissivity. In this application note, we walk you through these, as well as the Top 5 Checklist, and much more.
