The Fluke 1744 Three-Phase Power Quality Logger captures and analyzes power distribution system behavior across all three phases simultaneously. This Class A instrument logs up to 500 parameters for 85 days, delivering IEC 61000-4-30 compliant measurements of voltage, current, power, harmonics, interharmonics, mains signaling, unbalance, and frequency. Built for field troubleshooting and advanced power quality studies, it detects intermittent faults and hard-to-find disturbances that conventional meters miss.
