Earth ground testers
It is critical for facilities to have grounded electrical systems, so that in the event of a lightning strike or utility overvoltage, current will find a safe path to earth. To ensure a reliable connection to earth, the International Electrical Testing Association specifies ground electrode testing every three years.
Fluke’s family of electrical earth ground testers have been built to address the entire spectrum of ground testing methods from the basic to the most advanced. Our testers have been designed to be accurate, safe and easy to use. We provide quick and precise resistance measurements through several test methods: 3- and 4-pole Fall-of-Potential testing, selective measurement testing, stakeless testing and 2-pole testing.
Fluke 1623-2 Earth Ground Tester performs all four ground tests quickly and accurately.
The Fluke 1623-2 earth ground tester measures earth ground loop resistances using only clamps, only stakes, or one clamp and stakes. With the stakeless test method, the Fluke 1623-2 is able to measure earth ground loop resistances for multi-grounded systems using only current clamps. This technique eliminates the dangerous, and time consuming job of disconnecting parallel grounds, and finding suitable locations for auxiliary ground stakes. You can use it to perform earth ground tests in places you’ve not considered before, such as inside buildings, on power pylons, or anywhere you don’t have access to soil.
