Fluke has introduced its 283 FC Solar Digital Multimeter and a283 FC True-RMS Wireless Clamp, geared towards solar professionals working in high voltage environments such as testing individual panels, strings or inverters in a PV array.

The multimeter is designed to enhance safety while providing technicians with reliable and repeatable results. Features include video and audio polarity indicators, as well as a user-defined limit gauge.

“Our digital multimeters are renowned for their exceptional accuracy, durability and safety features, making them the preferred choice of professionals across various industries for reliable and precise measurement,” says Jason Waxman, president of Fluke Corporation.

“The Fluke 283 FC is uniquely positioned to cater to this market with both CAT III 1500 and CAT IV 1000 ratings prioritizing features that increase efficiency, safety and reliability. It’s a powerful all-in-one tool for solar professionals.”

The company’s wireless current clamp measures both AC and DC current up to 60 A, which is meant to ensure precise readings for installations, electrical systems and industrial equipment. The company says the non-contact design allows for safe connections without touching live wires.

With the Fluke 283 FC digital multimeter and a283 FC wireless current clamp, the company adds that technicians can measure voltage and current simultaneously and automatically calculate VA power.

When You’re Addressing Idiots You Can Get Away with a Lot

At left we have John Fetterman talking to people so stupid they’ll believe that it would have been wrong for the British colonists to oppose King George III in the late 18th Century, or for the people of Germany and Italy in the 1930s to stand up against Hitler and Mussolini.  What about the people in today’s dictatorships, i.e., the people in Russia, China, North Korea, or any of the other 50+  authoritarian regimes around the world?

Morons tend to agree with the loudest, most aggressive voice of nationalism, regardless of how little sense it makes.

It’s a great moment of opportunity for Fetterman.

Carl Sagan and the Suppression of Uncomfortable Ideas

Seminal astrophysicist Carl Sagan explains why uncomfortable ideas may be banned in religion, they must not be shunned in science.

This is an important concept in American life today, as conspiracy theorists are convinced that climate change denial cannot be considered in scientific circles.

I happened to bring this up in my interview with Dr. V. Ramanathan of the Scripps Institution, who has been amassing data on global warming since the 1970s.  He laughed, and explained, “If I could prove that human activity was not causing temperatures to rise, I’d be be one of the wealthiest and most famous scientists in world history.”

We Came Incredible Close to Averting the Disaster that Is Donald Trump

As suggested at left, a great deal of the hardship that has befallen the U.S. was simply bad luck.  Al Gore came within a whisker of victory in 2000, a win that would have forever changed the course of our nation in terms of energy policy, education, healthcare, and international affairs.

If Bernie had become the 2016 nominee, we wouldn’t have had Hillary Clinton telling our country’s most mean-spirited and least-educated people that they were “deplorables,” ushering a criminal sociopath into the White House.
