The increasing frequency of electricity-related accidents is projected to drive the growth of the electric test equipment market in the future. Electricity-related accidents refer to incidents that occur due to unintended and harmful interactions with electrical energy, which can lead to injuries, damages, or fatalities. These incidents often result from inadequate safety measures, a lack of awareness, poor maintenance of electrical infrastructure, and insufficient training on electrical safety practices. Electric test equipment serves as a crucial tool in preventing electrical accidents by identifying potential hazards, assessing the condition of electrical systems, and ensuring compliance with safety standards. For example, a report from Onedesk Inc., a Canada-based helpdesk and project management software company, estimates that there are between 500 to 1,000 fatalities resulting from electrical injuries annually in the U.S., alongside approximately 30,000 reported cases of nonfatal electrical injuries each year. Thus, the rising incidence of electricity-related accidents is a key factor driving the growth of the electric test equipment market.

In response to the growing need for safety measures, major companies in the electrical test equipment market are focusing on innovative product development. One such advancement is exemplified by Fluke Corporation's Fluke 377 FC and 378 clamp meters, which offer non-contact voltage measurement capabilities. Utilizing FieldSense technology, these meters enable safer and more efficient testing by allowing voltage measurement without direct electrical contact. Released in March 2022, these clamp meters enhance the safety of electrical measurements for maintenance technicians, ensuring rapid tests without exposure to live parts. With features such as Fluke Connect software and a power quality indicator, these meters further improve safety, efficiency, and accuracy in electrical testing.
