        Fluke | 117 Compact Digital Multimeter 600V | CAT III True-RMS

        The Fluke 117 is a compact True-RMS digital multimeter rated CAT III 600 V, built for electricians working on commercial and residential installations. The 117 measures AC and DC voltage, resistance, continuity, frequency, and capacitance, and captures minimum, maximum, and average readings over time. It carries integrated non-contact voltage detection and an automatic AC/DC voltage selector, paired with a 6,000-count backlit display. The meter ships with a TL75 test lead set, a protective holster, and a user manual.

        Fault finding on a live site means confirming a conductor is dead before work starts, often with a separate volt stick in hand. Ghost voltage on long cable runs can throw a false reading and send a sparky chasing a fault that is not there. The Fluke 117 answers both with integrated non-contact voltage detection and a selectable low-impedance mode that drops phantom voltage from the reading. Accurate measurement across both low-voltage and extra-low-voltage work keeps one meter on the tools instead of two.

        For a sparky on the job, the 117 covers the daily round from one tool: voltage, continuity, resistance, frequency, and capacitance. AutoVolt sets AC or DC for you, so the reading appears without switching ranges between tests. The 6,000-count backlit display stays readable in a dark switchboard, and the min, max, and average capture flags intermittent faults a single reading would miss. A true-RMS movement reports accurate figures on the distorted waveforms common on circuits with electronic loads.

        Features

        • True-RMS measurement — reports accurate AC voltage and current on distorted and non-linear waveforms, not just clean sine waves.
        • CAT III 600 V rated — certified to IEC 61010 for measurements on fixed installations and distribution wiring up to 600 V.
        • Non-contact voltage detection — the built-in VoltAlert sensor gives a fast go/no-go live check without touching a conductor or reaching for a separate volt stick.
        • AutoVolt AC/DC selection — the Fluke 117 detects whether the voltage is AC or DC and displays the correct reading automatically.
        • Selectable low-impedance mode — LoZ loads the circuit to clear ghost voltage from long parallel cable runs and prevent false readings.
        • 6,000-count backlit display — stays legible in dark switchboards and roof spaces, updating four times per second.
        • Capacitance and frequency ranges — measures capacitors and signal frequency alongside voltage, resistance, and continuity from the one meter.
        • Min, max, and average capture — records measurement extremes over time to catch intermittent drops and surges a single reading would miss.
        • 10 A current range — measures AC and DC current to 10 A through a fused input, with a maximum resolution of 1 milliamp.
        • IP42 rated housing — sealed against dust and dripping water for protection on site, though the 117 is not submersible and not weatherproof.
        • 9 V battery operation — runs around 400 hours on a single 9 V alkaline cell, so the meter stays usable through long stretches without backlight.
        • Supplied ready to use — the Fluke 117 includes a TL75 test lead set, a protective holster, and a user manual in the box.

        Where to use

        • Commercial fit-outs — the Fluke 117 suits testing and fault finding across offices, retail, and other commercial buildings on a CAT III 600 V system.
        • Hospitals and schools — handles routine verification and diagnostics in institutional buildings where downtime needs to stay short.
        • Domestic service work — checks power points, lighting circuits, and appliance faults during callouts and switchboard upgrades.
        • Switchboard testing — confirms voltage presence, polarity, and continuity at the board, with the backlight covering dim meter cupboards.
        • Live-dead-live testing — the non-contact detector and direct voltage ranges support proving a circuit dead before work begins.
        • Capacitor and motor checks — the 117 measures capacitance on motor-run and HVAC capacitors to confirm a suspect part before replacement.
        • Apprentice and training use — clear ranges and automatic selection make the meter a practical first instrument on the tools.

        The Fluke 117 is rated for CAT III 600 V and is not suitable for CAT IV service-entrance work or for measuring circuits above 600 V. It carries an IP42 housing, so it is not weatherproof and must be kept out of rain, submersion, and heavy wash-down areas.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Fluke 117 Compact Digital Multimeter (FLUKE117)

        "Adaptable Training tool accurate and suitable for both LV and ELV including Capacitors" — Graeme

        "Absolutely love this meter as a small unit" — Don

        "Everything you need all in a quality meter" — Gary

        (FLUKE117)

        The Fluke 117 is rated CAT III 600 V to IEC 61010, which covers measurements on fixed installations and distribution wiring up to 600 V. It is not rated for CAT IV service-entrance work or for circuits above 600 V.

        The Fluke 117 measures AC and DC voltage, resistance, continuity, frequency, and capacitance, plus AC and DC current to 10 A through a fused input, down to a 1 milliamp resolution. It also captures minimum, maximum, and average readings to help track values that change over time.

        Built-in VoltAlert technology senses voltage near a conductor and signals a go/no-go result without contact. It gives a fast live check before the test leads come out, which removes the need to carry a separate volt stick for that first look.

        The Fluke 115 and 117 share the same core measurements, but the 117 adds three features aimed at electricians: integrated non-contact voltage detection, a selectable low-impedance mode that rejects ghost voltage, and automatic AC/DC voltage selection. The 115 is pitched at general field service.

        The Fluke 117 suits users who want a meter with a large display and a broad set of measurement functions. The Fluke 175 is the stronger choice where a higher voltage rating and better accuracy matter: it is rated to 1000 V AC/DC against 600 V on the 117, and offers 0.15% basic DC accuracy against 0.5%.

        The meter runs on a single 9 V alkaline battery (IEC 6LR61) and gives about 400 hours of typical use without the backlight. A low-battery indicator appears on the display when the cell needs changing.

        The kit includes the meter, a TL75 test lead set, a protective holster, and a user manual. The TL75 leads and holster let you start testing straight away without buying extra accessories.
