The Fluke 1623-2 Earth Ground Tester is a compact, field-rugged instrument that performs all four types of earth ground measurement. Specifically, the Tester is able to measure earth ground loop resistances using only clamps – called Stakeless testing. This method doesn’t require the use of earth ground stakes or the disconnection of ground rods.

The 1623-2 is equipped with a 3-pole as well as a 4-pole resistance measurement that renders measurements of resistances of earthing systems and measurements of the soil resistivity of geological strata. The Tester also makes measurements with an external current transformer, with which a measurement of single resistance branches in interlinked networks (lightning protection and high voltage pylons with cabling) can be performed without separating parts of the system.

FEATURES:

One-button measurement concept.
3-pole and 4-pole earth ground measurement.
4-pole soil resistivity testing.
Selective testing, no disconnection of ground conductor (1 clamp).
Stakeless testing, quick ground loop testing (2 clamps).
Measuring frequency 128 Hz.
IP56 rated for outdoor use.
Rugged carrying case.
USB data storage and transfer.
