Electrical measurement is the backbone of technology. By measuring electrical currents, we can learn different things about the function and performance of machinery, digital technology, and more. Electricity runs our society, and being able to measure and quantify is as important now as ever. In this article, we’ll explain what exactly electrical measurement is, its common units of measurement, and what kind of tools are utilized in that measurement.What Are Electrical Measurements?Electrical...

Measurements require precision, and precision requires proper calibration. However, when calibrating how do we know what a precise unit of measurement actually is? That’s all thanks to metrology.In this article, we’ll discuss what metrology is, why it’s important, which sectors and industries rely on metrology, and more.What Is Metrology?Metrology is the science of measurement. It’s what establishes the standard measurements used not only in important scientific research but in every facet...

By Brian HarrisonAccording to a Fluke 2019 survey, roughly 50 percent of maintenance and reliability professionals were actively planning Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) initiatives.This survey preceded the challenges brought about by COVID-19. At the time, more than half of the teams interviewed found the IIoT process to be more complicated than anticipated because of an essential prerequisite—collaboration with other teams and departments. Despite the business disruption caused by the pandemic,...

Every process technician knows that the most difficult part about doing calibration in the field is getting all the hoses connected properly. Using the thread seal tape to seal up all the connections and having to take the time to reseal every time you perform calibrations. Not only is that time-consuming, but it could also lead to leak issues that throw off your measurements.In this video we're going to look at the best practices for doing a pressure calibration and what accessories, like fittings...
