Third hand: Not immediately apparent – including with this electrician who also has a T5 – is the addition of a lead holder. It also comes with detachable ‘SlimReach’ probe tips. Both unit and shrouded leads are built to take 1000V, with the latter tucking nicely into the rear. This is as rugged as most Flukes, with trademark tough yellow case and an easy-fit in the palm of the hand. There is also a sleep mode to help preserve power, while a basic data hold freezes on-screen values. A low battery icon indicates change advisable. Most impressive its battery life, courtesy of a couple of AAs able to dish out 300-400 hours usage. You won’t get the speed of a traditional Fluke multimeter regards auto ranging and continuity, but the T5 is timely. The T5-H5 kit also includes a non-contact volt stick, while the Max has a remote temperature sensing unit. Kit forms of the T5: A holster lets you clip the device to your belt and better stores the test leads. The probe holder does help somewhat, however. It is not as precise or accurate and lacks the finesse of a traditional amp clamp meter, but is nevertheless a handy tool for getting general amperage values.Īlthough it has most of what you need and is easy to use, unfortunately it can be awkward to handle as it can’t be propped up or hung. On the current front, you can measure to 100A in AC only. There’s just the one voltage position, so it very usefully deciphers AC from DC and displays results appropriately.

It manages this to CAT-III, with 600V to Cat-IV. Of the test ranges, voltage on the T5-1000 is up to 1000V for both AC and DC.

It is full auto ranging, so you simply select the appropriate position and await the results. The T5 was built with simplicity in mind, having an easy dial with just four positions and an open-jaw current measurement case.

A multimeter-cum-amp clamp, this useful meter can measure to 2000V and AC current to 100A without breaking circuit. Available in 600V and 1000V models.An all-in-one device, the Fluke T5-1000 is a handy tool for pros and amateurs alike able to measure volts, higher amps, resistance and continuity. The optional H5 holster lets you clip the T5 onto your belt. The test leads accept optional accessories such as clips and specialty probes. Detachable SlimReach™ test probes are customized for national electrical standards.

Its tough test leads stow neatly in the back of the tester, making it easy to tote the T5 in your tool pouch. OpenJaw™ current lets you check current up to 100A - without breaking the circuit. With the T5, all you have to do is select volts, ohms, or current and the tester does the rest. The Fluke T5 Electrical Testers let you check voltage, continuity and current with one compact tool.
