Increased safety
The IEC 61557 standard for installation testers has recently been re-issued to bring it in line with revisions to IEC 60364, and to increase safety for installation tester users.
The Fluke 1650 Series Multifunction Installation Testers comply with this update. In principle, the revisions increase the reliability and safety of testing protection measures using appropriate test equipment. Particular attention has been paid to insulation and loop resistance measurements, where information regarding effects that could influence measurements has been re-issued to reflect the latest instrument technology.
