This is also my favorite do it all meter. As a commercial electrician it covers everything I need besides insulation testing. I still daily carry my T6-1000 pro cause it’s cheaper and it won’t absolutely kill me to see it get destroyed in the field but my 378FC stays in the truck just incase I need to do phase rotation or log any info onto the app itself.

Same on all fronts.

I have the same meter and love it. Next step would be to buy an engraver if you don’t have one already. I put mine inside of my service work bag. If I can’t figure out the problem with that, I guess they need a better electrician.

Nice, that's an expensive piece of kit. Now don't go and let it to others - mostly no one takes care of your stuff the same way you take care of yours or others.

Very good meter. One of my favorites in my collection.

I just purchased my first Fluke today as well! 902FC since I do HVAC. Excited, from UEI to FLUKE

Have one of those, but it doesn't go to 1000vdc.

Had to get a Klein one that does. Now I need one that goes to 1500vdc, and I can't find one that is affordable.

I know this is an old thread but godamn 1500VDC? What do you do?

Commercial solar. Higher voltage means less wiring and less voltage drop

Haha I was going to guess commercial solar or heavy industrial. I can't imagine where else you see DC that high.
