Fluke Earth meter 1623-2 KIT

Ground measuring devices such as the Fluke 1623-2 are indispensable tools for troubleshooting. They contribute to maximising system availability and reducing the risk of electric shock for users. When fault currents do not find a path to earth through a properly designed and maintained grounding system, they follow unintended paths and can even traverse the human body.

In the absence of proper grounding, the likelihood of operational disturbances also increases. Without an efficient grounding system, electrical devices may experience instrument faults, distortion factor and power factor issues, as well as various sporadic faults. Studies show that 25% of power quality problems are attributed to inadequate grounding.

Non-invasive procedure
With the Fluke 1623-2 ground measuring device, earth loop resistances can be easily measured using current clamps. In this measurement procedure, z.
