Technical Data
The Fluke 1621 is an easy-to-use earth ground tester.
The first line of defense in detecting reliable ground
connections, the unit features basic ground testing
methods including 3-pole Fall-of-Potential as well as
2-pole ground resistance. Its convenient size, rugged
holster, and large, clear LCD display make it an ideal
field earth tester, for most work environments. With
a simple user interface and intuitive functionality, the
Fluke 1621 is a handy tool for electrical contractors,
utility test engineers, and earth ground specialists.

Note: If the tester is not going to be used, or is being stored for a long period, remove the battery and store separately from the tester to avoid
damage from battery leakage.
Note: The four temperature ranges for the tester exists to satisfy European Standards requirements; the instrument can be used over the full
working temperature range by using the temperature coefficient to calculate accuracy at the ambient temperature of use.
