The Fluke T5-1000 Electrical Tester is a versatile troubleshooting tool that combines voltage, continuity, and current testing in one compact device. With its OpenJaw™ design, you can measure current up to 100 A without breaking the circuit—simply slide a wire into the open fork. It's an essential tool to carry to every job site.
Key Features
- OpenJaw™ Design: Measure current up to 100 A without direct metallic contact.
- Auto-Selection: Automatically selects between AC and DC voltage up to 1000 V.
- Continuity Beeper: Offers quick go/no-go tests with resistance measurements up to 1000 Ω.
- Slim Reach Probe Tips: Detachable probes for easy access in tight spaces.
- Test Lead Holder: Allows for hands-free operation by making the meter an extended handle for the probe.
- Durable Design: Withstands a 10 ft. (3 m) drop and rated for CAT III 1000V, CAT IV 600 V.
- Auto-Off Mode: Conserves battery life when not in use.
- Optional Holster: Attaches to a belt and neatly stows test leads for portability.
Product Overview
Using the T5-1000 is straightforward: select volts, ohms, or current, and the tester does the rest. The OpenJaw™ design allows for fast and easy current measurements without needing to make metallic contact. For voltage measurements, the tester automatically selects between AC and DC up to 1000 V.
The continuity beeper provides quick verification of continuity, and resistance measurements can be taken up to 1000 Ω. The detachable Slim Reach probe tips make it easy to work in tight spaces, and the test lead holder enables hands-free operation.
Safety Features
- Integrated Protection Circuit: Allows the tester to stay connected to a voltage source longer than a solenoid tester.
- Safety Ratings: CAT III 1000V, CAT IV 600 V for high safety standards.
- Durability: Withstands drops up to 10 ft. (3 m).
Fluke T5-1000 vs. T6-1000
The T5-1000 uses the OpenJaw™ design to measure current without metallic contact. It also measures voltage and continuity using test leads. In contrast, the Fluke T6-1000 employs FieldSense™ technology to display both current and voltage simultaneously without test leads.
