Introduction
The Fluke 5320A and 5320A/VLC are Multifunction Electrical Tester Calibrators
(hereafter referred to as the Calibrator), providing full calibration and testing of electrical
safety testers. Some examples of these testers are:
• Megohm meters
• Ground bond testers
• Loop testers
• RCD testers
• Appliance testers
• Electrical installation testers
• Earth resistance meters
• High voltage safety testers (Hipots)
Calibrator Functions
The Calibrator performs output and measurement functions.
Output Functions:
• Insulation resistance
• Earth resistance and continuity
• Loop, line and ground bond resistance
• Residual Current Device (RCD)/Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) testing
• Leakage current source
• AC/DC voltage generation (5320A/VLC only)
Measurement functions:
• AC/DC voltage and current measuring
• Load current, power consumption
Function Descriptions
The following sections describe various functions of the Calibrator. Unless otherwise
noted, the following descriptions apply to both 5320A and 5320A/VLC.
