Hello, hope somebody can help me with a little bit of history... I'm trying to find out out when the old C&G 2360 Pt1 & Pt2 qualifications began and ended, and what replaced them, and when. Also - and I know comparisons can only be approximate - what is the nearest equivalent to the...

Have got the chance to pick up an end-of-line 'old' model Fluke 1652 or 1653 installation tester but all the on-line marketing spiel is telling me that these have now been replaced by the 'new & improved' 1652B and '53B respectively. Given the difference of a few hundred pounds between the...
