An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Fluke introduces hard-wearing multimeters from Fluke (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "The Fluke 27 II and 28 II digital multimeters (DMMs) can operate in harsh conditions while delivering features and accuracy to troubleshoot most electrical problems. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Flir introduces electrical maintenance service from Flir Systems: "Flir Systems and Extech have come together to offer a service for finding and resolving electrical faults.".

In August 2009, we covered the news from Fluke (UK) - take a look at Fluke Rail Portal offers troubleshooting guidance which says: "Fluke has launched a rail troubleshooting resource centre on its website to help maintenance engineers and technicians prevent costly unplanned downtime.".
