Compact true-rms meter for
commercial applications
The Fluke 117 is the ideal meter for
demanding settings like commercial
buildings, hospitals and schools. The 117
includes integrated non-contact voltage
detection to help get the job done faster.
General specifications

Notes:
1
All ac voltage ranges except Auto-V/LoZ are specified from 1 % to 100 % of range. Auto-V/LoZ is specified from 0.0 V.
Because inputs below 1 % of range are not specified, it is normal for this and other true-rms meters to display non-
zero readings when the test leads are disconnected from a circuit or are shorted together. For volts, crest factor of ≤ 3
at 4000 counts, decreasing linearly to 1.5 at full scale. AC volts is ac-coupled. Auto-V LoZ, and ac mV are dc-coupled.
2
Frequency is ac coupled, 5 Hz to 50 kHz for ac voltage. Frequency is dc coupled, 45 Hz to 5 kHz for ac current.
