This is a review of the Fluke 87V. This is Fluke's true RMS digital multimeter with 6000 / 20000 count. This is an industrial multimeter for electrical / electronics.
I will be using this multimeter in a future series on "How to use a multimeter for advanced measurements" (multimeter tutorial)

Specs:

* Unique function for accurate voltage and frequency measurements on adjustable speed motor drives and other electrically noisy equipment (87V)
* Built-in thermometer conveniently allows you to take temperature readings without having to carry a separate instrument (87V)
* Optional magnetic hanger for easy set-up and viewing while freeing your hands for other tasks
* Large digit display with bright, two-level backlight makes the 80- Series V significantly easier to read than older models

I demonstrate the DMMCheck and PentaRef from VoltageStandard (www.voltagestandard.com).
These are Low cost Voltage References and multimeter checks for voltage, current and resistance.
I then run through some tests to compare the accuracy of the following multimeters:

Fluke 287
Brymen TBM867 / BM867
Major Tech MT1887 / Extech EX530
Major Tech MT22
ISO-Tech IDM207

I also introduce the Fluke 87 V which I will review soon.

*** This is a follow-up to the first round of testing I did as viewers spotted / pointed out some critical issues that affected the results ***

I also test the Fluke 87 V with the reference voltage, resistance and current values.
