Fluke Earth meter 1623-2

Grounding measurement devices like the Fluke 1623-2 are essential tools for troubleshooting. They help maximize equipment availability and reduce the risk of electric shock for users. When fault currents do not find a proper path to ground through a well-designed and maintained grounding system, they follow unintended paths and can even travel through the human body.

In the absence of proper grounding, the likelihood of operational disruptions increases. Without an efficient grounding system, electrical devices may experience instrument errors, 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.

With the Fluke 1623-2 grounding measurement device, ground loop resistances can be easily measured using clamp meters.
