Tool of the Month
Key Features:
Essential for monitoring power quality in automated systems. Features advanced measurement capabilities for voltage, current, power, and harmonics analysis. The 87V is for the “Inside the Cabinet” expert (troubleshooting the brain of the robot), while the 117 is for the “Field Electrician” (getting the power to the machine).
Pros:
Highly Portable: Small enough to fit in a shirt pocket; perfect for quick continuity checks or bench-top hobby projects.
Fluke Safety: Unlike cheap “Amazon brands,” this still meets CAT III 600V safety standards, meaning it won’t explode if you hit a power spike..
Rugged: Still drop-tested and built to last years, despite the small size.
