The rugged, handheld Fluke 1621 can be used to determine a site for a reliable earth ground connection and also as part of a predictive maintenance programme to check that existing connections are within tolerance.
It features a large, clear LCD offering intuitive functionality via the user interface.
An adjustable 'limit' setting instantly alerts the user to measurements outside set limits.
The readings show up clearly in daylight and in poor lighting conditions and values can be captured by a single push of a button.
Accurate measurements are ensured thanks to an automatic 'noise' voltage detection feature, and a hazardous voltage warning helps protect the user.
