Hi guys,
For a little over three years I've been the proud owner of a Fluke model 337 Clamp current meter.
While it's always given me excellent service, and greatly aided in measuring current loads of all kinds (although I've never gone anywhere near its rated max of 1000A!) , and troubleshooting hardware from my PSUs to my neighbour's car's starter motor, there's a little issue that I've been wondering about for some time...
When one sets the dial for either AC or DC current measurements the display rests at a "zero" of about 0.3 or 0.4A. While the DC Amps reading can be 'tared' on the spot by pressing the 'Zero' button, this cannot be done with the AC Amps setting.
Can someone advise me with regard to this issue? Would this be a matter for "recalibration", or is there some other way by which it can be addressed?
If any should wish me to do so, I can take and upload pictures of any part of the Fluke.
PS. Note that this zeroing issue seems to exclusively be affecting the AC Amps setting.
