The Fluke 1662 is a multifunction installation tester (rather than a simple handheld multimeter) designed for professional electrical testing on fixed installations.
✅ Key Features & Capabilities
-
Measures AC voltage (up to 500 V) and frequency.
-
Checks continuity (autoranging) with low‐ohm resolution.
-
Insulation resistance test at multiple voltages (100V, 250V, 500V, 1000V).
-
Loop and line impedance, and prospective fault current / short circuit calculations.
-
RCD (residual current device) / earth leakage testing: trip time, current, and ramp testing for various RCD types.
-
Phase sequence indication (for three‑phase systems.
-
Pros
-
Very capable for industrial/commercial/residential fixed installations (wiring, RCDs, insulation, loops).
-
Rugged build, includes accessories (leads, zero adapter, carry case)
-
Meets relevant electrical safety standards (e.g. overvoltage categories) and is designed for reliable testing in real‑world environments.
Trade‑offs / Limitations
-
As a specialized installation tester, it may lack some “general purpose” functions found in bench multimeters (e.g. high precision low current measurement, advanced frequency spectrum features).
-
It is relatively large and heavier (≈ 1.3 kg with batteries
-
The IP rating is modest (IP40) so it’s not fully protected against dust and moisture in harsh environments
-
This item comes with a 30 day warranty. 120 day purchase protection plan is available at an additional cost for extra cover and peace of mind.
