yes and no.....the fluke is very good at capturing pulses and giving a average reading which you can times by 1.414 which will be close to what a dva would read. But if the voltage is all over the place then the fluke might struggle. (cheaper meters tend to take snap shots of the voltage and will not stabilize)
thanks glen and pam for your quick responce. then all i do is multiply 1.414 x the ac volt reading that i get from stator? thank you very much for info have a good evening.:joyous:
bruceb58 thank you so much for the links ill be off to radio shack get some parts i cant thank you guys enough for all your time and knowledge. i have learned so much from this site and also come to realize just how little i know .keep up the good work and thanks again:joyous:

depending on the model of 87 you have you can on some models just set it to min/max capture and the max will be the same or real close to a dva reading especially on a stator. Once you have built the dva adapter why not try both of the other methods and tell us what the results are using the 87*. Now before I get picked on I never said you can read a power pack pulse unless you had the 87v which is a faster meter and way to expensive to consider compared to a dva or dva adapter.

well im at lake ,bruceb58 you are right radio shack dont have and cant order the capacitor does anyone know where toget one dont have internet at camper so im at mickey ds i still plan to do the comparrision thanks again for help
