Terms to Know

Use this section to familiarize yourself with these terms that are
unique to this Product.
FieldSense™ Technology/Non-contact voltage (NCV)
Measurement. Voltage measurements by capacitive sensing
technology that completes galvanic isolation. This technology uses
capacitive sensors for measuring AC voltages through non-
galvanic contact, coupled with a Hall Effect jaw that allows
simultaneous current measurements. It enables minimizing
voltage probes connections, therefore reducing hazardous
situations and saving setup-up time, and circuit or machine
downtime. Fluke-developed icon for FieldSense technology is U.
L1-L2-L3. L1, L2, and L3 (or Line 1, Line 2, and Line 3) is a
common naming convention for the wires in three-phase
alternating current (ac) systems. The Clamp features a sequential
line-to-ground measurement that results in a calculated line-to-line
voltage measurement. This voltage measurement is an indication
that the three-phase system is, or is not, working as expected.
Power Factor. Power factor (PF) is the ratio of working power,
measured in kilowatts (kW), to apparent power, measured in
kilovolt amperes (kVA). PF expresses the ratio of true power used
in a circuit to the apparent power delivered to the circuit.
Fluke Connect™App. Fluke Connect is a system that wirelessly
connects your Clamp with an app on your smartphone or tablet.
THD. The total harmonic distortion is a measurement of the
harmonic distortion present in a signal and is defined as the ratio
of the sum of the powers of all harmonic components to the power
of the fundamental frequency.
Fluke Connect™ (377 FC/378 FC)
Fluke Connect™ software (may not be available in all regions)
supports the Clamp to wirelessly connect to a mobile app. The app
shows the measurements and other data on your smartphone or
tablet display. You can share this data with your team and save
collected measurements and calculations to the Fluke Connect
Cloud.
Fluke Connect uses low-power 802.15.4 wireless radio technology
to connect the Clamp with an app on your smartphone or tablet.
The wireless radio does not cause interference with Clamp
measurements.

Radio Frequency Data

Changes or modifications to the wireless 2.4 GHz
radio not expressly approved by Fluke Corporation
