Earth Ground Clamp

Users Manual

Introduction

The Fluke 1630-2/1630-2 FC Earth Ground Clamp (the

Product or Clamp) is a handheld, battery-operated clamp that

measures the ground resistance without auxiliary ground rods

and AC leakage current. The Clamp is used in multi-grounded

systems without disconnecting the ground under test.

The Clamp supports these applications:

•

Earth resistance and AC leakage current tests of high

voltage pylons, buildings, cell phone substations, and RF

transmitters

•

Inspection of lightning protection systems

The 1630-2 FC supports the Fluke ConnectWireless System

(may not be available in all regions). Fluke Connect is a

system that wirelessly connects your Clamp with an app on

your smartphone or tablet. The app shows the ground

resistance measurements on your smartphone or tablet

display. You can save these measurements and images to

Fluke ConnectCloud storage and share with your team. For

more information, see Fluke Connect Wireless System on

page 17.

Earth Ground Clamp

Before You Start

This section is information to know before you use the Clamp.

 Warning

To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or

personal injury:

•

For optimal readings, make sure the conductor

is positioned between the alignment marks on

the jaws.

•

Make sure the jaws are perpendicular to the

conductor.

•

Do not use the HOLD function to measure

unknown potentials. When HOLD is turned on,

the display does not change when a different

potential is measured.

•

Replace the batteries as soon as the low

battery indicator appears.

Power On/Off

The Clamp has a power on/off button:

1. Push to turn on the Clamp.

2. Push and hold >2 s. to turn off the Clamp.

If Auto-Off Power is turned on, the Clamp turns off after

20 minutes of no use. See Power Auto-Off on page 11 for

more information about how to set this feature.

Alarm Threshold

In alarm mode, the display shows ALARM and the beeper

sounds when the measurement is outside the set threshold.

The Clamp compares the reading with the high and low

values. If the reading is larger than the high value, the Clamp

beeps and shows -- on the display. If the reading is less

than the low value, the Clamp beeps and -- shows on the

display.

To set the alarm threshold:

1. Push until ALARM shows in the display. See Figure 2.
