Rated 3 out of 5 by Dixie from Great tester but no manual? There are times when you can save money and then there are times you just shouldn't. Considering the cost of this tester and the complexity of it I would have expected a user manual in the box. But no, I can't just flick through it to find how to "null" the cables, it's 90 pages and I need to download it and print it myself.
Really poor experience and I have 3 other items from Fluke.
Need to reconsider, going forward.
