Fluke 87-5/E2 KIT 87V Industrial True-RMS Multimeter Combo Kit

I am a field service representative and have recently transitioned into program management. I believe this is the most versatile meter on the market today. I specifically like the accuracy and its ability to display peak recording of volts/amps fluctuations. This feature is a tremendous aid in troubleshooting sensitive aircraft systems. I recommend the 87V/E2 kit to all of my field reps.

I purchased the 87-V/E2 kit about 4 months ago and I couldn't have made a better investment. This is my first "grown-up" meter and I hope that it will help me out on projects for many years to come.
The 87-V itself is a very solid meter; the quality of the materials is top-notch. With the kit, you get a nifty case, a magnet strap, and some extra probes, which are a nice addition for the price. The aligator probes are especially nice for hard-to-hold pieces. The probes have interchangeable ends, which is a plus becuase you can carry it all in the case without wrapping up a bunch of leads.
It has just about every feature you would need for basic industrial stuff (which is what I do and for stuff around the house. There's a few hidden features as well that you may find handy.
The only downside to this kit is the regular probes. They are only 4mm long, so if you need to get into something deeper, you'll have to get another set of probes.
Overall this kit is a very nice additional to your arsenal, whether seasoned or novice.

fluke 87 meters are reliable and accurate I've used other brand meters in the past and would always get false readings with hertz, and ohms. I purchased my first fluke 87 about 12 yrs. ago and it is still as acurate as the newest one I got about 2 yrs. ago. The options that are available really help you when your in some deep troubleshooting on generators, control panels, switchgears, and electrcal systems on engines.

I bought my first 87 in 1984 and my 2nd one in 1986 and still use both today. What else can I say?

When my 15yr old 87 was stolen around a year ago, there was no question what I would replace it with. The 87V. From home electronics to industrial plant floor and control room, there's not much this meter won't check. I especially like the peak recording for finding surges in volts/amps and the thermocouple for verifing readings of installed equipment. Buy one (and keep track of it) and it may well be the last DVM you ever buy!!!

This is the last meter you will buy! So many features packed into one kit . I am the service manager for our company and this meter gets me out of most spots From simple voltage to Frequency drives and Duty cycle it has it all , Frequency and current can be measured with the Clamp attachment ( AND ITS Within .5%) It replaced 5 different meters . Do not hesitate to buy.
Plus the added leads make multiple base measurements a snap!
