Powerfully simple reporting
Fluke 1770 Series Power Quality Analysers come standard with the
powerful Fluke Energy Analyse Plus software, designed to analyse
power quality data right out of the box without extensive training.
It enables technicians to quickly compare results to historical
values, benchmark against industry norms, compare measured
data to local conditions, and create a more complete picture of
what’s occurring across the facility – even as the data is still being
collected.
With Fluke Energy Analyse Plus, technicians can create
customized reports or leverage built-in one-click reporting to
industry standards like EN 50160, IEEE 519, and GOST 33073.
