Good multimeter for Industrial use at work (Fluke alternatives)

If I were the OP I wouldn't want to try to save money. I don't want to piss off the engineers. I may buy other brands other than Fluke like Gossen, Yokogawa etc.. I know that those meters along with Fluke offer little over the cheaper ones for the money but I wouldn't want to save a buck in this case.

The top Brymen models are probably adequate, but if you are going to offer your engineers and techs non-Fluke instruments you will probably hear about it.  And if you offer them Uni-T, you'll likely be drawn and quartered. 

What is motivating you to do this change?
MerlijnD:
I cannot explain the why in much regard.

But this is for us the best time to look into alternatives because:

Fluke's double measurement on 1 display is extremely expensive but the most used/requested feature for vfds and or generator mains failure frequency verification etc.
The fact that we keep extra stock and loan sets when their main equipment is being calibrated. (All our current loan sets are old and broken and some of the engineers main fluke stuff is breaking down as well. Current replacement stock in-office is zero).

I've seen a couple people mention Yogokawa; we use alot of their equipment in office and in other parts of our business.

The Yokogawa TY530 is the same model as the Kyoritsu 1051, same as the Yokogawa TY720 is the Kyoritsu 1061 if the memory doesn't fail me.

This last 2 have logging capacity.

You could start by acquiring a couple of Brymens or whatever you are considering and setting up your loan sets with those.  Then you'll get some feedback that may help determine how acceptable they would be as a general replacement.
