Clamp meters: Peak vs. In-rush?
Fluke clamp current meters have 2 features that seem similar: peak and
in-rush. The older models have Max (some: Peak). The recent advent in Fluke clamps is "In-rush". How do these differ? Isn't in-rush current the short, max current at motor-turn on? Shouldn't meters with a Max feature capture this accurately? Compare, for example, my old Fluke 36 (Max): http://assets.fluke.com/manuals/36______iseng0000.pdf and the 334 (In-Rush): http://us.fluke.com/VirtualDemos/330shock.asp (click "Explore" then "Selection Guide"). How do Max & In-rush differ? Only in the marketing department? Or is there a real-world difference? Thanks, Dave |
