Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter Reviews

Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter The Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter is a versatile and reliable tool designed for technicians, electricians, and DIY enthusiasts who value quality, accuracy, and safety in their electrical measurements. Built for everyday testing and troubleshooting, it measures AC/DC voltage up to 1000 V and AC/DC current up to 10 A, while offering essential testing functions such as resistance measurements up to 40 MΩ, continuity, diode, and capacitance. Unlike the Fluke 15+, the Fluke 17B+ includes advanced features such as frequency and temperature measurement, relative mode, and MIN/MAX recording, making it ideal for more detailed diagnostics and system analysis. With a CAT III 600 V safety rating and built-in overload protection, the Fluke 17B+ provides users with confidence in demanding environments. Its large, backlit display ensures that measurements remain visible in low-light conditions, while the data hold function and over-voltage indicator further enhance convenience and safety for quick readings and clear status awareness during operation. The Fluke 17B+ works well in temperatures from 0°C to 40°C and can handle humidity levels up to 90%. It has fuse protection for the current inputs and meets important safety standards like IEC 61010-1, IEC 61010-2-030, and CAT III 600 V. It is powered by two AA batteries, delivering a battery life of up to 500 hours for uninterrupted operation for extended periods.
