The Fluke 1577 Insulation Multimeters combine a digital insulation tester with a full-featured, true RMS digital multimeter in a single, compact, handheld unit, which provides maximum versatility for both troubleshooting and preventative maintenance.
Whether you work on motors, generators, cables, or switch gear, the Fluke-1577 Insulation Multimeters are ideally suited to help you with your tasks and at a cost that is far less than buying the two products.
The Fluke-1577 is a digital insulation multimeter (DMM) designed for professional use in electrical maintenance and troubleshooting applications. It is mainly used to measure and test insulation resistance, in addition to performing the functions of a standard digital multimeter.
Testing insulation resistance usually requires a specialized instrument known as an insulation resistance tester or megohmmeter (commonly referred to as a “megohmmeter”). The Megohmmeter is specifically designed to measure high resistance values commonly encountered during insulation testing of electrical conductors, cables, and equipment.
Using a multimeter to measure insulation resistance is both inaccurate and unsafe as multimeters are not designed for this purpose and attempting to do so could damage the multimeter and give inaccurate results. To test insulation resistance, it is essential to use appropriate equipment, such as a specialized insulation resistance tester or megohmmeter, which can apply a high voltage to the insulation and accurately measure the resulting resistance. These devices are designed with the safety features and voltage ranges required to handle insulation testing safely and efficiently.
