Default Fluke 79 DMM

Hi all,

The Fluke 79 from user Lighting arrived earlier today - many thanks!

This meter had an episode with a microwave oven magnetron so I wasn’t holding a great deal of hope for it but I do like a challenge…

As it turned out it only required 3 components to get it working - definitely a testament to the build quality and ruggedness of Fluke gear. Short circuit bridge rectifier, open circuit input resistor (note these need to be replaced with the correct fusible flameproof type) and the 1A input fuse.

Checked on a calibration machine and all well within specifications.

Cheers,

Kev
