Fluke GFL-1500 Solar Ground Fault Locator

Revolutionise Fault Location, Maximise Solar Production.

COMTEST has on offer, the Fluke GFL-1500 Solar Ground Fault Locator, a frontline troubleshooting tool that helps technicians pinpoint active ground faults in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems. It works by producing a traceable signal in the array, allowing for fast, intuitive, non-contact tracing directly to the fault location. This innovative approach eliminates the frustration of time-consuming, brute-force troubleshooting and reduces unnecessary exposure to electrical hazards. In addition to improving safety and reducing downtime, this innovative solution redefines how technicians locate active ground faults in solar PV systems. By replacing complex, manual diagnostics with an easy-to-follow trace signal, the GFL1500 streamlines fault isolation, helping teams restore system operation quickly and effectively.

Fluke GFL-1500 – Key features

  • Identify and locate active ground faults in PV systems
  • Reduce troubleshooting time with easy-to-follow traceable signal
  • Decrease exposure to hazards with non-contact tracing
  • Analyse, Fault Tracing, Open Circuit, and Mapping functions
  • CAT III 1500 V DC/CAT IV 600 V rated transmitter and receiver

The Fluke GFL-1500 system includes:

  • Transmitter: CAT III 1500 V DC, CAT IV 600 V, meets the rigorous safety standards outlined in IEC 61010-1 and 61010-2-030.
  •  Receiver: CAT III 1500 V DC, CAT IV 600 V, meets IEC standard 61010-1.
  •  Signal Tracing Clamp: Rated for use on insulated conductors up to 1500 V.

Whether the site of the work is at the inverter, combiner, or module level, the GFL-1500 Ground Fault Locator has been rigorously tested for safety and durability to provide a rugged, safe, fast, and reliable solution for identifying ground faults in high-voltage environments – empowering technicians to work confidently and efficiently in the field.
