Solar Kit with 87V-MAX Multimeter and Test Leads
The 87V MAX is the ideal electrical troubleshooting solution for solar inverters, combiner boxes, and battery storage systems. The 87V MAX is built with an IP67-rated, industrial-strength case and a removable holster. The holster doubles as a test probe holder for easier, one-handed operation. This meter is fully waterproof and dustproof keep working reliably no matter where your job takes you. Safely connect the Solar PV test leads to the meter to validate voltage from individual panels or a series of panels in a PV array.
Key functions of the meter and Solar PV test leads:
- Measure the voltage of PV arrays safely and accurately
- The IP67-rated meter can withstand harsh outdoor environments
- A meter is designed to survive drops up to 4 meters (13 feet)
- Solar PV leads comply to IEC / EN 61010-031

Fluke 87-5 MAX
The 87V MAX contains all the trusted features of the most popular digital multimeter used today, the Fluke 87V, and then some. From wet, dusty, or dark environments to long days, the 87V MAX was designed to help you finish the most on a work site. It features a unique function for accurate voltage and frequency measurements on variable frequency motor drives (VFDs) and other electrically noisy equipment; using True-RMS AC voltage and current for accurate measurements on non-linear signals.
For use in extreme environments
The Fluke 87V MAX True-RMS Digital Multimeter defines a new standard for operating in extreme conditions, with the features and accuracy to troubleshoot most electrical problems. The 87V MAX has an IP67 (waterproof and dustproof) rating, an extended operating temperature range of -15°C to +55°C (5°F to 131°F, -40°C for up to 20 minutes), and 95% humidity, and has been designed and tested to withstand a 4m (13 ft) drop. The Fluke 87V MAX True RMS Digital Multimeter is built to work in the toughest environments you might face.
The 87V MAX also has an industrial-strength outer shell and a removable holster that doubles as test lead storage and a test probe holder for one-handed operation.
