Compact Digital Multimeter Designed for Electricians

The Fluke 117 Electrician's Multimeter is designed specifically for electrical technicians who need a reliable, easy-to-use meter for everyday troubleshooting and maintenance.

Unlike advanced industrial multimeters built for complex process environments, the Fluke 117 focuses on speed, convenience, and safety for common electrical tasks in:

  • Commercial buildings
  • Hospitals
  • Schools
  • Residential electrical systems

Its compact ergonomic design allows technicians to perform measurements comfortably with one hand.

Integrated Non-Contact Voltage Detection

One of the most practical features of the Fluke 117 is built-in VoltAlert™ non-contact voltage detection.

Before connecting test leads, electricians can quickly check whether voltage is present.

Benefits include:

  • Faster circuit identification
  • Reduced troubleshooting time
  • Improved workplace safety
  • No need to carry a separate voltage detector

This feature is especially useful during electrical installation and maintenance work.

AutoVolt Automatic AC/DC Voltage Selection

The Fluke 117 includes AutoVolt technology, which automatically detects whether the measured voltage is AC or DC.

This helps technicians:

  • Reduce manual settings
  • Avoid incorrect measurement modes
  • Complete testing faster

For everyday electrical troubleshooting, AutoVolt simplifies operation and improves efficiency.

LoZ Low Input Impedance Prevents False Readings

Modern electrical systems may contain unwanted "ghost voltage" caused by capacitive coupling.

The Fluke 117 provides a Low Impedance (LoZ) mode that helps:

  • Reduce false voltage readings
  • Identify actual energized circuits
  • Improve troubleshooting confidence

This is particularly useful when checking wiring and electrical installations.

True-RMS Measurement for Reliable Results

The Fluke 117 uses True-RMS measurement technology to provide accurate readings on non-linear electrical loads.

It can measure:

  • AC/DC voltage
  • AC/DC current
  • Resistance
  • Continuity
  • Frequency
  • Capacitance

True-RMS capability improves measurement accuracy when working with modern electrical equipment containing electronic controls.

Easy Operation in Real Working Environments

Electrical work often happens in areas with limited visibility.

The Fluke 117 features:

  • Large digital display
  • White LED backlight
  • Simple rotary selector
  • Compact one-hand operation

These features help electricians quickly read measurements in electrical rooms, panels, and building service areas.

Built for Commercial Electrical Applications

The Fluke 117 is optimized for professionals working on:

  • Building electrical systems
  • Lighting circuits
  • Power distribution
  • HVAC electrical equipment
  • Control panels

Its combination of safety features and practical functions makes it a dependable everyday electrical troubleshooting tool.
