Yes, it is possible to replace the screen on a Fluke 1520 meter if it has been damaged. However, it is recommended that you have the replacement done by a qualified technician to ensure that it is done correctly and safely.
Replacing the screen on a Fluke 1520 meter requires specialized knowledge, tools, and parts. It may also require the recalibration of the meter after the screen has been replaced, to ensure accurate readings. Therefore, if you are not experienced with electronics repair, it is best to have the replacement done by a professional technician.
You can contact Fluke customer support or an authorized Fluke service center for assistance with getting your meter repaired. They should be able to provide you with information on the cost of the repair, the availability of replacement parts, and the warranty options that may be available to you.
