Fluke T6 Electrical Tester

Fits handheld AC voltage and current checks on branch circuits where you want open-fork FieldSense readings without a closed jaw, plus conventional lead measurements to 1000 V.

Key advantages

• Open-fork FieldSense — AC voltage to 1000 V and AC current to 200 A without a closed jaw.
• Lead measurements too — V AC/DC to 1000 V and resistance to 100 kΩ (T6-1000 class).
• 1000 V CAT III / 600 V CAT IV — IEC/EN 61010-1 marks.
• Compact handheld — ~0.35 kg; 17.8 mm fork opening.

Typical applications

• Branch-circuit AC voltage/current checks where open-fork access is faster than a clamp.
• Electricians who want FieldSense plus conventional lead measurements in one tool.
• Spare/replacement of T6-1000 — OEM marks discontinued; successor T6-1000 PRO suggested.

Selection guide

• FieldSense AC — Voltage to 1000 V; current to 200 A; frequency 45–66 Hz.
• Lead measurements — V AC/DC via leads to 1000 V; resistance to 100 kΩ (T6-1000).
• Accuracy — FieldSense Vac ±(3% + 3 counts); FieldSense Aac ±(3% + 3 counts); Vac leads ±(1.5% + 2); Vdc ±(1% + 2).
• Output — Display only (FieldSense open-fork measurements).
• Supply — 2× AA (IEC LR6); ~360 h continuous / ~200 h FieldSense typical.
• Ambient — Operating −10…+50 °C; storage −30…+60 °C.
• Form — Handheld open-fork tester; jaw opening 17.8 mm; dimensions 61.1×259.3×43.8 mm; weight 0.35 kg.
• Approvals (datasheet) — 1000 V CAT III; 600 V CAT IV; IEC/EN 61010-1.
• Notes — OEM marks T6-1000 discontinued; successor suggested T6-1000 PRO. Part# 4910269.

Common mistakes

• Ordering against an active T6-1000 production status — OEM marks the T6-1000 discontinued and points to T6-1000 PRO; confirm availability and successor fit in the RFQ.
• Using FieldSense accuracy (±3% + 3 counts) where the loop needs the tighter lead Vac/Vdc figures — pick the method that matches the tolerance.
• Ignoring CAT rating: this sheet lists 1000 V CAT III / 600 V CAT IV — do not apply the tool above those categories.
• Assuming an IP rating — none is listed in the product data; do not claim dust/water protection from this page.
• Expecting a process transmitter output — this SKU is display-only, not a 4–20 mA loop device.

When to RFQ / what to tell us

1. Measurement need: FieldSense V/A vs lead V AC/DC / resistance, and expected max values.
2. Category of the circuit (CAT III / CAT IV limits on the datasheet).
3. Whether you need the discontinued T6-1000 form factor or will accept the OEM-suggested T6-1000 PRO successor.
4. Quantity, ship-to country, and any required marks beyond CAT III/IV and IEC/EN 61010-1.

FAQ

Q: Is this a clamp meter or a FieldSense open-fork tester? A: Open-fork FieldSense for AC voltage/current (to 1000 V / 200 A) plus lead measurements for V AC/DC and resistance. Jaw opening is 17.8 mm.

Q: Can I still buy a T6-1000? A: OEM marks T6-1000 discontinued and suggests T6-1000 PRO. State whether you need the legacy form or will accept the successor in the RFQ.

Q: What approvals are on the datasheet? A: 1000 V CAT III, 600 V CAT IV, and IEC/EN 61010-1. No IP rating is listed in our product data.

Q: What should I send for a quote? A: Measurement type and max values, CAT environment, quantity, and whether successor T6-1000 PRO is acceptable. Compatible with systems/tools using Fluke T6 if you need a drop-in check — we do not claim authorized-dealer status.
