Fluke773 Advanced Milliamp Process Clamp-Meter

Delivery was fast. Very handy tool

The meter itself seems fine and despite a worried call to fluke when I received it, it appears to be genuine. It arrived with english documentation in water damaged and sun faded chinese packaging.The shipping process was sketchy, and it was handed off to a courier I have never heard of before on reaching canada, before being mailed to me in an unpadded plastic bag style envelope with no padding whatsoever.

I was a controls engineer for 3 and a half years before my new job... a controls engineer. After a year, I finally bought what my last job provided for me. It's not that my new job wasn't willing to buy this item; I simply wanted to own it myself. $1300 (at the time of my purchase) wasn't chump change for me. The value of this item is simply far reaching and invaluable to have with me for years if the worst happens with my current employer. For loop powered devices and troubleshooting ANYTHING, this isn't A tool: it's the only tool. Having worked in pharmaceutical environments where disconnecting a device can literally cost millions of dollars: there aren't a lot of choices for checking signals in loop powered devices without disconnecting them. This is one of the most perfect tools for a specific application I've ever seen in my life.Downside to this purchase: the Chinese model showed up. The screen and even the manual are in English, but everything else is in Chinese. Is there any issues with China getting a second stream item? Have I gotten one of those items? The meter looks and acts like the normal one, but I'll stick it out. $1300... Yikes

Fluke has the best and accurate tools.

Works well
