Fluke 117 Digital Multimeter, Non-Contact AC Voltage Detection, Measures Resistance/Continuity/Frequency/Capacitance/Min Max Average, Automatic AC/DC Voltage Selection, Low Impedance Mode

My husband had to have for work

This meter works great. It passed our companys certification process, so unless you need independent certification on a contract basis, I wouldnt go with the certificated model thats twice as much. Ive worked with Flukes for almost 20 years and have never had a problem with any of their models.

I use this meter in my handyman work. It rides around in my tool bucket, so it is very durable. Quite satisfied.

Funny thing about Fluke, its no fluke that this company sets the STANDARD for quality high. I should know I once

have not used all of the functions yet but so far very good.

First I ordered a cheap $50 meter, thinking it would be “good enough “. It had the proximity voltage detection which I thought would be handy. Well it barley worked. Intermittent at best. Not what you want when checking for voltage. I returned it and figured this wasn’t the item to try and save money on. I be worked with Flukes for over 30 yrs and this one is what you want. Only think they need to include a manual and a pouch.

As always Fluke meters are the best. I bought this one for home. Ive had my other one that I use at work for fifteen years and no issues so I didnt hesitate to buy this one.

Having changed employers, I had to turn in the companys Fluke 87 which was a disappointment compared to the old gray Fluke 77 it replaced.

First Fluke 117 DMM I received only measured a little over 3 volts AC at a wall outlet known to be good. I emailed Fluke customer service; they said it indicates a faulty meter and to request a replacement. I did so from Amazon, who promptly (two day shipping) sent me a replacement unit - which also measured the same 3 volts AC and also appeared to be faulty. As I only needed the replacement meter, I kept the original leads I received. As a last resort, I got the leads out of the replacement units packaging and used them - and lo and behold it worked! Tested each of the original leads for continuity; the black one was faulty! This DMM would have received 5 stars from me if Fluke would only bother to quality check the leads they ship with their meters!

Got this to replace a 20 plus year old unit that finally died. Does everything I need. Love fluke!
