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 ConnectWireless 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 ConnectCloud storage and share with your team. For
more information, see Fluke Connect Wireless System on
page 17.

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.
2. Push to select the type as Amps HI, Amps LO,
Ohms LO, or Ohms HI.
3. Push / to increment/decrement the value.
4. Push to confirm the current input and move to the
next setting.
