The 1625 is a HiPot from Fluke. HiPot, or high potential, is a class of electronic test equipment used to verify electrical insulation. Engineers use HiPot-testing instruments on cables, wires, circuit boards, appliances, electric motors, and transformers. As a product ages, its insulation may break down and result in current flow leakage. HiPot testers keep engineers safe from current leakages by detecting gaps and defects in the electronic device. Dielectric Testers, Insulation Testers, and Megohmmeters are similar to HiPot testers. Popular manufacturers include Biddle, Megger, Fluke, Associated Research, Quadtech, Instek, and Slaughter.
Additional features:
3- and 4-pole earth ground measurement
4-Pole soil resistivity testing
2-pole resistance measurement AC
2- and 4-pole resistance measurement DC
Selective testing, no disconnection of ground conductor (1 clamp)
Stakeless testing, quick ground loop testing (2 clamps)
Earth impedance measurement at 55 Hz
Automatic frequency control (AFC) (94, 105, 111, 128 Hz)
Measuring voltage switchable 20/48V
Programmable limits, settings
Continuity with buzzer
The Fluke 1625 is a distinctive earth ground tester that can perform all four types of earth ground measurement. Specifically, the Fluke 1625 tester is able to measure earth ground loop resistances using only clamps – called Stakeless testing. This method doesn’t require the use of earth ground stakes or the disconnection of ground rods.
