The Fluke A283 Current Clamp is a wireless clamp meter intended for use with the Fluke 283 Digital Multimeter. It can measure AC/DC current up to 60A and is safety rated to CAT III 1500 V, CAT IV 1000 V making it ideal for troubleshooting electrical systems, industrial equipment, and solar installations. A thin jaw and wireless design eliminates the inconvenience of tangled wires and allows electricians/technicians/contractors to install and enclose the Fluke A283 Clamp in tight spaces like combiner boxes. Furthermore, wireless, non-contact measurement facilitates safe connections and testing: there’s no need to touch live wires and professionals can take measurements from a safe distance. The Fluke A283FC True-RMS Wireless Current Clamp provides safe, precise, simple measurements.
