Do I need a new Fluke clamp meter?

Is there something you need to do that the meter you already have is not adequate for? If what you have works, then there's no reason to upgrade.

that is pure witch doctor mentality.

You going blind ??

And a TROLL by any other name smells just as putrid as this shit.

"Need" is a subjective term.

If what you want is to make a repetitive job easier, I would recommend (without personal experience) a good hand held oscilloscope such as Fluke makes. They are not cheap. With that, you need a current transformer with a load resistor called a Rogowski coil equivalent. That is the clamp-onm and sensing part of a clamp-on meter. Record the start-up current waveform. Then you have a record of the waveform you can data process to your heart's content instead of relying upon someone else's cryptic algorithm.

Read Fluke application note 1629920 and work it out.

Could you provide a link to that document, because I can't find it.

AH, so you are an expert of AC/DC . how's the swinging these days?

You two are a perfect pair.

At least I never get to see Proteus's posts, except as quotes. Google gets filtered out here. I pray that he'll never get a proper news service.

From Wikipedia: "Proteus is a bacterial genus within the medically important group of Enterobacteriaceae. Species most commonly associated with clinical disease are Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris and Proteus penneri. Proteus species are notorious in medical microbiological laboratories because of their rapid swarming growth on commonly used agar plates."

Ok, but what does IIV mean?

Since putting smaller Roman numerals to the left of larger ones means to
subtract them from the larger, that\'s just a cutesy, dumb-ass way of
writing "3".
