Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Fluke AC89 unique for field electrical testing?
The AC89 pierces insulated wire without stripping, allowing measurement of live circuits without cutting or exposing conductors, and the insulation self-heals after testing.
What wire sizes can the Fluke AC89 pierce?
The AC89 is engineered for insulated wire ranging from 0.25 mm to 1.5 mm thick, covering single-strand, twisted-pair, and light multi-strand conductors.
Why would a technician choose the AC89 over stripping wire?
Piercing avoids exposing conductors to corrosion and moisture, maintains conductor integrity for future testing, and eliminates the risk of accidentally damaging the wire during stripping.
