- Continuity, diode test, and capacitance measurement modes
- Compact design at 167 x 84 x 46 mm for field use
The Fluke 117 EUR True RMS Multimeter is a reliable handheld tester designed for electricians and field service technicians who need to troubleshoot electrical systems quickly and safely. Combining True RMS technology with Fluke’s trusted build quality, this multimeter accurately measures voltage, current, resistance, and continuity on both linear and non-linear loads. Its compact size and intuitive interface make it ideal for panel work, branch circuit troubleshooting, and routine maintenance tasks where accuracy and durability matter.
The reason electricians pick the Fluke 117 EUR is the safety check before the measurement: VoltAlert non-contact voltage, AutoVolt AC/DC selection, and LoZ so ghost voltage on a dead circuit collapses. It is a CAT III 600 V True-RMS meter with a 6,000-count display, aimed at commercial buildings, hospitals and schools rather than high-energy industrial feeders.
Fluke 117 EUR Key Features
This multimeter features a 600 V CAT III safety rating, protecting users working on industrial control panels and distribution equipment. The True RMS function ensures accurate measurements on variable frequency drives and other non-linear loads.

Fluke 117 EUR questions
Checks that decide this meter versus a general DMM:
- Choose it when you need VoltAlert and LoZ on outlet and lighting circuits, not when you need a logging meter.
- CAT III 600 V covers distribution boards in commercial buildings. It is not the meter for higher-energy industrial buswork.
- Ask MME for UAE stock and the EUR kit contents before you book the site visit.
