Safety Information: Read First
Read the safety information before using the Fluke 43B.
Specific warning and caution statements, where they apply, will be found
throughout the manual.
A “Warning” identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s)
to the user.
A “Caution” identifies conditions and actions that may damage
the Fluke 43B.
The following international symbols are used on the Fluke 43B and in this
manual:

Warning
To avoid electrical shock, use only a Fluke power supply, Model
PM8907 (Power Adapter/Battery Charger).

Safety Information: Read First
3
Warning
Do the following to avoid electrical shock or fire if a Fluke 43B
common input is connected to more than 42 V peak (30 V rms):
•Use only test leads and test lead adapters supplied with the
Fluke 43B (or safety-designed equivalents as specified in the
accessory list, see Chapter 2.)
•Do not use conventional exposed metal banana plug
connectors.
•Use only one common connection to the Fluke 43B.
•Remove all test leads that are not in use.
•The maximum allowable input voltage is 600V. Use test lead
adapters that have a rating of 600V or more.
•When powering the Fluke 43B, first connect the power
adapter to the outlet before connecting it to the Fluke 43B.
•Do not insert metal objects into the power adapter connector
of the Fluke 43B.
Warning
In the scope function it is possible to select AC coupling and to
operate time base ranges and amplitude manually. In this case,
the measuring results displayed on the screen may not be
representative of the total signal. This can result in the presence
of dangerous voltages of more than 42 V peak (30 V rms) not
being detected. To guarantee user safety, all signals should first
be measured with DC coupling. This ensures that the full signal
is measured.

The terms ‘Isolated’ or ‘Electrically floating’ are used in this manual to indicate a
measurement in which the Fluke 43B COM (common, also called ground) is
connected to a voltage different from earth ground.
The term “Grounded” is used in this manual to indicate a measurement in which
the Fluke 43B COM (common) is connected to an earth ground potential.
The Fluke 43B common inputs (red INPUT 1 shield, gray INPUT 2 shield, and
black 4-mm banana COM input) are connected internally via self-recovering
fault protection. This is denoted by the symbol.
The input connectors have no exposed metal and are fully insulated to protect
against electrical shock. The black 4 mm banana jack COM (common) can be
connected to a voltage above earth ground for isolated (electrically floating)
measurements and is rated up to 600V rms above earth ground.
If Safety-Precautions are Impaired
Using the Fluke 43B in a manner not specified may impair the protection
provided by the equipment. Before using, inspect the test leads for
mechanical damage and replace damaged test leads!
If it is likely that safety has been impaired, turn the Fluke 43B off and disconnect
it from the line power. The matter should then be referred to qualified personnel.
Safety is likely to be impaired if, for example, the Fluke 43B fails to perform the
intended measurements or shows visible damage.
Current Probe
Warning
•Use extreme caution when clamping the current probe around
uninsulated conductors or bus bars.
•Never use the current probe on circuits rated higher than 600V
in measurement category III (CAT III) of EN/IEC61010-1
•Keep your fingers behind the finger guard.
Do not use a probe that is cracked, damaged, or has a defective cable. Such
probes should be made inoperative by taping the clamp shut to prevent
operation.

Introducing the Fluke 43B
Powering the Fluke 43B
To power the Fluke 43B from a standard AC outlet, perform steps 1-3.
For battery power, see Chapter 2.
1 Plug the power adapter into the AC outlet.
2 Connect the power adapter cable to the Fluke 43B (see Figure 2).
Figure 2. Powering the Fluke 43B
3Turn the Fluke 43B on.
The opening screen will appear on the display (see Figure 3).
Note
If the Fluke 43B does not turn on, the batteries may be dead. Leave
the Fluke 43B connected to the outlet for 15 minutes and try again.

Figure 3. Opening Screen
The screen shows which test leads or probes you should use on the inputs.
Note that in the screen shown in Figure 3, for example, you should use TEST
LEADS for voltage measurements and a 1 mV/A current probe for current
measurements.
