The Fluke 17B+ Digital Multimeter is an entry-level professional instrument fortechnicians who need reliable Fluke quality and CAT III safety at a cost-sensitive price point.With a built-in K-type thermocouple input for temperature measurement, the 17B+ adds thermal diagnostics without a separate thermometer.For facilities deploying multiple meters at cost-sensitive quantity, general maintenance technicianscovering a broad range of tasks, and applications where the primary requirement is a reliablebranded meter with documented calibration pedigree, the 17B+ delivers Fluke standards at thelowest price in the professional range.
Key Features
- CAT III Safety Rating: Rated for distribution-level panel measurements, theminimum professional safety standard for electrical work in commercial and industrial environments.Not all budget meters carry genuine CAT III ratings with the overvoltage protection engineeringthat the designation requires.
- 6,000-Count Display: Professional resolution on a backlit display forlow-light panel and equipment work.
- Full Basic Measurement Suite: AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance,capacitance, frequency, continuity, and diode test, the complete set of measurements neededfor routine electrical maintenance.
- Temperature Measurement: Built-in K-type thermocouple input for motor bearing checks, panel thermal surveys, and basic thermal diagnostics without a separate instrument.
- Min/Max Recording: Captures measurement extremes during load changes andmotor starting events.
- Fluke Build Quality and Warranty: Same manufacturing quality standards andlimited lifetime warranty as higher-tier Fluke instruments, instruments that will be in servicelong enough to justify calibration programs.
Applications
- General electrical maintenance and troubleshooting in commercial and light industrial environments
- Facilities management multi-meter fleet deployments at cost-sensitive scale
- Teaching and training environments where Fluke instrument familiarity is the training goal
- Field technician general-purpose measurement for broad maintenance task coverage
