The Fluke 1625-2 GEO Earth Ground Tester Kit offers you simpler and faster earth ground tests than ever before. The 1625-2 offers internal memory storage up to 1500 records, accessible via USB port for rapid data transfer and viewing of results. This earth ground tester also gives you world-class accessories that take the tedium out of earth ground testing. New wire reels speed up setup and tear down time as much as 50%. Heavy duty stakes can be hammered into dry, hard soil. And new color-coded wires make setup simple and help eliminate mistakes.

The 1625-5 improves your earth ground processing with automatic frequency control (AFC), R* measurement, adjustable limits, 3- and 4- pole fall-of-potential earth resistance loop testing, and 4-pole soil resistivity testing.  It also offers selective earth ground rod testing using 1 clamp and stakeless earth ground rod testing using 2 clamps.  It is IP56 rated for outdoor use and comes with a rugged carrying case.

Kit includes the GEO Earth Ground Tester, 2 clamps, C1620 professional carrying case, 4 earth ground stakes, and 3 cable reels.

 

• Measures earth group loop resistances using only clamps (does not require earth ground stakes)
• Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) - identifies existing interference and chooses a measurement frequency to minimize its effect, providing more accurate earth ground value
• R* measurement - calculates earth ground impedance at 55 Hz to more accurately reflect the earth ground resistance that a fault-to earth ground would see
• Adjustable limits - for quicker testing
• 3- and 4-pole Fall-of-Potential, earth resistance loop testing
• 4-pole Soil Resistivity testing
• Selective earth ground rod testing using 1 clamp
• Stakeless earth ground rod testing using 2 clamps
• IP56 rated for outdoor use
• Rugged carrying case
• USB data storage and transfer
