--- Quote from: stj on September 16, 2017, 09:44:28 pm ---it's in the "manual", each Hz setting has different voltage and frequency limits. the one on the voltage position has a very limited frequency range 40Hz-1KHz - probably intended for testing power sources, the dedicated range is only supposed to work upto about 35v if i remember right. --- End quote --- First, I'm reading both power company mains at 120 volts AC at 60 cycles, and a generator that delivers the same. Secondly, I don't believe the link for the manual you posted is for the Ragu meter. In that PDF, it's mentioned it uses AA batteries, the Ragu uses a 9volt battery, and it does not come with a temp probe. The manual I found was very skimpy and very few specs! This is the link for the Ragu 17B manual I copied from the Amazon page: https://www.crenova.net/Uploads/Product/Manual/59a3ee4283015.pdf |

It has a genuine CAT III 600V rating and is perfect for this sort of work, especially in combination with your clamp. |

I bought this Ragu at $10, to simply keep plugged in to monitor the voltage and frequency of the generator all day, I plan on making a battery eliminator. I have access to co-workers Flukes as well, but in 36 years of basic electric work, and reading voltage up to 240 AC with Radio Shack meters if that's what I had at hand. I've never had an issue in the specific applications I'm using them for. |
