Be careful on the True RMS issue. Some meters say True RMS on the outside, but they mean only for voltage, not current. The Fluke 87 is like that. So when you add a current probe to it, it is not reading true RMS current. Some condensers are coming with electronic motor controllers now, small VFDs designed to work with 1 phase PSC motors. They will give you trouble when trying to read current.
