While wiring a compressor, there are a number of things to consider for a proper electrical hook up. A main concern is the amperage requirements of the compressor. This dictates the size of the wires. Another factor is if the compressor is single-phase or three-phase power. This dictates t...
"So, we had to go back up on the roof, take apart the panels and find the misconstruction. It's extremely costly and an extreme time waster. That's why taking measurements with the Fluke meter is integrated into part of everything we do." ...
really nothing more than a highly accurate resistor. When we place a precision resistor across a circuit, a voltage drop will occur across it. The shunt sensor’s output is measured by the data acquisition system, which applies Ohm’s law to determine the amperage flowing through the circuit....
Measure the starting and running amperage, the running voltage and the leg-to-leg balance. Measure the temperature at first startup, unloaded, loaded and after a period of use. A motor may run hot because it's been used hard, is in a high-temperature area, or has a problem. Without ...
accept and hold a charge, and is capable of producing close to its rated amperage output. A BAD battery is one that will NOT accept or hold a charge, or cannot produce adequate cranking amps. A GOOD battery can be recharged and returned to service but a BAD battery needs to be replaced...
If you’re using a Ramps board, I highly suggest using a Relay or Mosfet transistor to switch the power on to the heated bed. The Ramps board doesn’t seem to handle the amperage very well and will get very hot and overheat the poly fuse, the mosfet on board, burn up the input pow...
With all the work I do this is why I always have at least two testers with me at all times, a Tic Tester and my K-60. Every few years I have to replace the leads with a new set. AC Clamp On Meter Voltage Tester Measures AC amperage, AC/DC voltage and resistance. Amperage measur...
Unpack your system immediately when it arrives to check for damage or missing parts. Find a clean, open space where you can unbox and inspect your equipment. Place loose parts into resealable plastic bags and label them so they don’t get lost. Check the contents of the shipment against ...

You can also use the USB meter to check computer ports and make sure the voltage is right and enough amperage is delivered to drive the peripherals such as a USB hard drive. The USB meter can be used for continuous monitoring too. Phones that do not come with LED charging indicators need...
