Fluke 1625 Geo Earth Ground Tester

• Performs stakeless. 3-pole and 4-pole fall-of-potential soil resistivity, and selective, earth ground testing for commercial and industrial applications.
• Advanced automatic frequency control (AFC) identifies interference and selects the best frequency to avoid corruption of measurements by ground currents and their harmonics.
• Meter uses resistance measurements to calculate earth ground impedance at 55 Hz for a more precise reflection of earth ground resistance that is provided by fault-to-earth grounding.
• Displays which stakes and clamps need to be connected after selecting type of test to be performed.
• Stakeless earth ground rod-testing using 2 clamps.

Product Description ------------------- The Fluke 1625 Earth Ground Tester not only measures ground resistance using the classic “fall of potential test,” but also enables time saving testing using “selective” and “stakeless” methods. “Selective” testing doesn’t require the electrode under test to be disconnected during the measurement, thus increasing safety. The simple “stakeless” method quickly checks ground connections using two current transformers (probes) clamped around the ground conductor under test. The Fluke 1625 is a distinctive earth ground tester that can perform all four types of earth ground measurement. Specifically, the 1625 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 testing methods of this tester include 3 and 4 pole fall of potential which is standard earth ground testing using two ground stakes; selective testing without disconnecting ground rods, a technician can measure ground resistance using a combination of stakes and a clamp, and stakeless testing which is an innovative solution using only clamps, instead of ground stakes, to measure earth ground loop resistance. From the Manufacturer --------------------- Fluke Corporation is the world leader in the manufacture, distribution and service of electronic test tools and software. Since its founding in 1948, Fluke has helped define and grow a unique technology market, providing testing and troubleshooting capabilities that have grown to mission critical status in manufacturing and service industries. From industrial electronic installation, maintenance and service, to precision measurement and quality control, Fluke tools help keep business and industry around the globe up and running. The Fluke 1625 GEO earth ground tester offers an innovative solution, called stakeless testing, to make your earth ground loop resistance testing quicker and easier. There is no need for a separate earth ground clamp. The Fluke 1625 features the following: 3- and 4-pole fall of potential, earth resistance loop testing, 4-pole soil resistivity testing, selective earth ground rod testing using 1 clamp, and stakeless earth ground rodtesting using 2 clamps. The 1625 has automatic frequency control (AFC) that identifies existing interference and chooses a measurement frequency to minimize its effect, providing more accurate earth ground value. The 1625 calculates earth ground impedance at 55 Hz to more accurately reflect the earth ground resistance that a fault-to earth ground would see, an also has adjustable limits for quicker testing. The tester kit includes a rugged carrying case, is IP56 rated for outdoor use and is sold one set per package. The 1625 advanced GEO earth ground tester kit is covered by a two year warranty.
