HOW DO I CHECK VOLTAGE WITH A FLUKE METER? - Fluke Networks Fluke T+PRO Electrical Testers

Check that wires are shorted on the end of TC and if they are wiggle connector that plugs into Fluke 51 to check that it's not loose.

try looking for Invoice (it should have model) on it or ask place where you purchased unit from

specification is given up to 500Hz


this is a process meter - not made for frequencies above 500Hz, you need dmm to measure this frequency

check input protection (thermistor (black components - first in line at Voltage terminals should be around 1kOhm, next is 2W resistor = 1kOhm and then 3 varistors (blue) open or very high ohms).

no fuse for clamp, check recall for this model and use it on known conductor that you read with another clamp to confirm fault

check for shorts in circuit after battery connector

probably input protection circuit is broken, Fluke does not repair these it's repair by replacement

Error 1 is an indication that the self test has failed. This will require repair at an authorized Fluke service center. There is an internal problem with the meter. The only thing that you can try is to replace the internal battery. Should the battery be defective, the internal testing can be effected. I have only seen this occur once, but it is worth the attempt. Should a new battery not fix the problem, return the meter to Fluke for repair.

i dont know if this affects the reading on AC but in the back of the meter there are 2 fuses. remove the back cover and check these fuses.

Hi, that is the error message indicating a EEPROM error and unfortunatlely, you can't do anything except have the meter serviced by either Fluke directly, or by an authorized Fluke test equipment dealer.

Since Fluke doesn't provide the specs and coding for their products, you wouldn't be able to repair the meter properly, even if you could burn and program your own chipset.

Here's a copy of the manual for your meter, so you can contact Fluke for servicing and see the other info relating to it (for your future reference)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Fluke products are typically quality test instruments and there might be a possibility that you're still covered under their warranty, so checking with them is the best avenue for getting it back to working condition.

I hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!
