The Fluke 345 Power Quality Clamp Meter combines power analysis, quality logging, waveform capture, and current measurement in a single handheld instrument. Built for commissioning and troubleshooting modern electrical systems—VFDs, electronic lighting, and UPS equipment—it delivers non-invasive AC/DC current measurement via Hall Effect clamp technology alongside simultaneous voltage and power analysis. The device integrates a low-pass filter for distorted waveforms, high EMC immunity, and internal memory for extended data logging across multiple power quality parameters.
