Fluke will, at its option, repair at no charge, replace, or refund the purchase price of a defective product purchased through a Fluke author-

ized sales outlet and at the applicable international price. Fluke reserves the right to charge for importation costs of repair/replacement parts

if product purchased in one country is sent for repair elsewhere.

If product is defective, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center to obtain return authorization information, then send the product

to that service center, with a description of the difficulty, postage and insurance prepaid (FOB Destination). Fluke assumes no risk for dam-

age in transit. Fluke will pay return transportation for product repaired or replaced in-warranty. Before making any non-warranty repair, Fluke

will estimate cost and obtain authorization, then invoice you for repair and return transportation.

THIS WARRANTY IS YOUR ONLY REMEDY. NO OTHER WARRANTIES, SUCH AS FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE

EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-

AGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE OR THEORY. AUTHORIZED RESELLERS ARE NOT

AUTHORIZED TO EXTEND ANY DIFFERENT WARRANTY ON FLUKE’S BEHALF. Since some states do not allow the exclusion or limita-

tion of an implied warranty or of incidental or consequential damages, this limitation of liability may not apply to you. If any provision of this

warranty is held invalid or unenforceable by a court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity

or enforceability of any other provision.

Warning. Read before using the Meter:

To avoid possible electrical shock or personal injury, follow these gidelines:

⇒Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by the Meter might be impaired.

⇒Do not use the Meter or test leads if they appear damaged, or if the Meter is not operating properly. If in doubt, have the

Meter serviced.

⇒Always use the proper terminals, switch position, and range for measurements.

⇒Verify the Meter’s operation by measuring a known voltage.

⇒Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the terminals or between any terminal and earth

ground.

⇒Use caution with voltages above 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. These voltages pose a shock hazard.

⇒Replace the battery as soon as the low battery indicator ( b) appears to avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock

and injury.

⇒Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing resistance, continuity, diodes, or

capacitance.

⇒Do not use the Meter around explosive gas or vapor.

⇒When using the test leads, keep your fingers behind the finger guards.

⇒Remove test leads from the Meter before opening the Meter case or battery door.

True RMS Multimeters

The Fluke Model 175, Model 177, and Model 179 are battery-

powered, true-RMS multimeters (hereafter "the Meter") with a

6000-count, 3 3/4-digit display and a bar graph. This manual

applies to all three models. All figures show the Model 179.

These meters meet CAT III and CAT IV IEC 61010 standards.

The IEC 61010 safety standard defines four overvoltage

categories (CAT I to IV) based on the magnitude of danger from

transient impulses. CAT III meters are designed to protect against

transients in fixed-equipment installations at the distribution level;

CAT IV meters are designed to protect against transients from the

primary supply level (overhead or underground utility service).

The Meter measures or tests the following:

♦AC / DC voltage & current ♦Diodes

♦Resistance ♦Continuity

♦Voltage & frequency ♦Capacitance

♦Temperature (Model 179 only)

"Warning" and "Caution" Statements

A "

Warning" identifies hazardous conditions and actions that

could cause bodily harm or death.

A "Caution" identifies conditions and actions that could damage

the Meter, the equipment under test, or cause permanent loss of

data.

Unsafe Voltage

To alert you to the presence of a potentially hazardous voltage,

when the Meter detects a voltage ≥30 V or a voltage overload

(OL), the Ysymbol is displayed.

Test Lead Alert

To remind you to check that the test leads are in the correct

terminals, LEAd is momentarily displayed when you move the

rotary switch to or from the mA or Aposition.

Warning

Attempting to make a measurement with a test lead in

an incorrect terminal might blow a fuse, damage the

Meter, and cause serious personal injury.
