Introduction
XWWarning
Read "Safety Information" before you use the Meter.
The Fluke 374, 375, and 376 (the Meter) measure true-rms ac current and voltage, dc current
and voltage, inrush current, resistance, and capacitance. The 375 and 376 also measure
frequency and dc millivolts. The detachable iFlex (Flexible Current Probe) that is included with the
376 (optional with the 374 and 375) expands the measurement range to 2500 A ac. The Flexible
Current Probe provides increased display flexibility and allows measurements of awkward sized
conductors and improved wire access. The illustrations in this manual show the 376.

Safety Information
A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user. A Caution identifies
conditions and procedures that could cause Meter damage, equipment under test damage, or
permanent loss of data.
Symbols used on the Meter and in this manual are explained in Table 1.
XWWarning
To prevent possible electrical shock or personal injury, follow these guidelines:
•Use the Meter only as specified in this manual or the protection provided by the
Meter can be compromised.
•Examine the case before you use the Meter. Look for cracks or missing plastic.
Carefully look at the insulation around the connectors.
•Never measure current while the test leads are inserted into the input jacks.
•Make sure the battery door is closed and latched before operating the Meter.
•Remove the test leads from the Meter before the battery door is opened.
•Examine the test leads for damaged insulation or exposed metal. Check test lead
continuity. Replace damaged test leads before using the Meter.
•Do not use the Meter if it operates incorrectly. Protection can be compromised.
When in doubt, have the Meter serviced.

•Do not use the Meter around explosive gas, vapor or in damp or wet
environments.
•Use only type AA batteries, properly installed in the Meter case, to power the
Meter.
•When measuring current with the Jaw, keep fingers behind the Tactile Barrier.
See "The Meter" .
•To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock and injury, replace the
batteries as soon as the low battery indicator () appears.
•When servicing the Meter, use only specified replacement parts.
•Have the Meter serviced only by qualified service personnel.
•Be careful around voltages > 30 V ac rms, 42 V ac peak, or 60 V dc. Such
voltages pose a shock hazard.
•Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the Meter, between the
terminals or between any terminal and earth ground.
•When using the probes, keep fingers behind the finger guards on the probes.
•Connect the common test lead before connecting the live test lead. When
disconnecting test leads, disconnect the live test lead first.
•Do not work alone so assistance can be rendered in an emergency.
•Use extreme caution when working around bare conductors or bus bars. Contact
with the conductor could result in electric shock.

•Adhere to local and national safety codes. Individual protective equipment must
be used to prevent shock and arc blast injury where hazardous live conductors
are exposed.
•Disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before you
measure resistance, continuity, or capacitance.
•For the 374 and 375, do not measure ac/dc current in circuits carrying more than
1000 V or 600 A with the Meter Jaw.
•For the 376, do not measure ac/dc current in circuits carrying more than 1000 V
or 1000 A with the Meter Jaw.
•Never operate the Meter with the back cover removed or the case open.
•Do not measure ac current in circuits carrying more than 1000 V or 2500 A with
the Flexible Current Probe.
•Do not apply the Flexible Current Probe around or remove from HAZARDOUS
LIVE conductors.
•Do not use the flexible current sensor if the inner contrasting insulation color is
showing.
•Take special care during fitting and removal of the Flexible Current Probe. De-
energize the installation under test or wear suitable protective clothing.
