Description
Every factory manager asks the same thing sooner or later: where does the electricity go? A Fluke 1736 power logger rental answers that question with data instead of estimates. You clip it onto a three-phase feeder, let it log, and read the load profile at the end of the study.
What the logger records
The 1736 logs voltage, current, power, power factor and energy on all three phases. It also analyzes harmonics up to the 50th order. Four flexible i17xx-flex1500 probes wrap around large cables, so you can install it in minutes without a shutdown. Because it draws power from the circuit it measures, you do not need a spare outlet near the panel.
Its inputs carry a 1000 V CAT III and 600 V CAT IV rating. Then, back at the office, Energy Analyze Plus software builds load curves and cost reports straight from the download.
Questions a short study can answer
| Question | What to look at |
|---|---|
| Do we have room for a new line? | Peak demand against transformer or generator capacity |
| Will the new machine break our contracted demand? | Demand peaks over a full production week |
| Is the utility bill right? | Logged energy against the metered energy |
| What is our ISO 50001 baseline? | Energy by area, shift and day |
| How much does the solar system add? | Daytime import before and after the array |
Fluke 1736 power logger rental versus buying
Most plants run one or two studies a year. So a bought logger spends most of its life in a drawer. A Fluke 1736 power logger rental, by contrast, matches the cost to the project and lets you log several feeders at once with more than one unit. It also suits consultants who need an extra logger for a single audit.
When to step up to the 1738
If machines trip or drives fault, you need event capture as well as energy data. In that case, ask for the Fluke 1738, which records dips, swells and inrush with waveforms.
On arrival and before return
First, check the four probes, the voltage leads and clips, the power adapter and the soft case. Next, match the calibration certificate to the serial number. At the end of the study, save your files to a PC before you pack the logger, since Lost in HCM may clear the memory for the next user.

FAQ about renting the 1736
How long does a typical load study take?
Many audits log one full production week, so you see every shift and the weekend. Longer studies help when the load changes by season.
Do I need to switch off the panel to install it?
Usually not. The flexible probes wrap around live cables, but your site safety rules and permits still apply.
Is software part of the rental?
Yes. Energy Analyze Plus ships with the logger for download and reporting.
