    Display

    Digital Display—Digital displays show a numeric reading on an LCD.
    Analog Display—Analog displays show the magnitude and rate of change so you can see rapidly changing resistance values more easily than on a digital display.
    Light-Indicator Display—Light indicator displays have a scale with LEDs that light up to show the resistance as good, caution, or bad.

    Hand Crank-Operated Insulation Testers

    Turn the crank to generate voltage and measure electrical resistance as an indication of insulation quality in equipment such as motors, generators, and switchgear.
    These testers have an analog display that works well for measuring rapidly changing resistance values because you can see the magnitude and rate of change more easily than on a digital display.

    Insulation Testers for Hand Tools

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Insulation Testers. Insulation Testers for Hand Tools.
    Ensure proper insulation and ground wire continuity in new or repaired drills, circular saws, grinders, and other hand tools. Also known as a hi-pot tester, it checks the quality of a tool's insulation by applying voltage and measuring how much current leaks from the tool.
    Calibration Certificate—The calibration certificate is traceable to NIST.

    Fluke Insulation-Testing Multimeters

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Multimeters. Fluke Insulation-Testing Multimeters.
    Check insulation quality in electrical equipment such as motors and power tools. You can also take other electrical measurements with these Fluke multimeters, known for quality and durability.
    True RMS AC Calculation—True RMS multimeters take accurate AC measurements regardless of the load type or sine wave shape. This is important for testing electronic devices that draw current in short pulses that can distort the shape of the wave, such as computers and adjustable-speed drives.
    Multimeters with Calibration Certificate—Multimeters with calibration certificate include a document stating that they have passed a test for accuracy.
    Display Count—Display count is an industry designation and not an actual value. For example, a 6,000-count multimeter shows numbers up to 5,999. A higher display count means the multimeter can give a more precise measurement.
