Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Fluke 1587 FC: The Ultimate 2-In-1 Insulation Multimeter for Accurate Electrical Testing by James Naylor

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It is not possible to reset the resistance value when the test leads are compensated. report updated.

I wanted to use this to test EVs in the automotive class (I'm an instructor). After contacting Fluke, I learned that I needed to measure the resistance of the leads and then calculate the difference in the resistance reading. Since we're looking for a reading below 0.05 ohms, that's a bit annoying for a $700 meter. The first counter I've used in a long time without a zero function. Otherwise ok. After further communication with Fluke they proved very helpful and we found a solution which caused me to change my rating to 5.0. Aside from the non-zero feature, the counter works well.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Poorly thought out
