Perform earth resistance measurements of simple or complex electrode systems, ground resistivity measurements (4-wire Wenner´s principle), and spurious voltage measurements according to IEC 61557-5.
The equipment injects an electronically generated current in the soil. Both current and voltage developed are measured with high precision.
OPERATION FREQUENY | During R measurement, operator should select the following test frequencies: 270 Hz ± 1 Hz or 1470 Hz ± 1 Hz |
VOLTMETER | In the voltmeter function, the equipment operates as a CA conventional voltmeter, making it possible to measure voltages generated by parasitic currents. |
MEASUREMENT RANGES | Resistance: 0 - 20 kΩ (autoranging) Resistance: 0 - 20 kΩ (autoranging) Resistivity: 0 - 50 kΩm (autoranging) Voltage: 0 - 60 V |
ACCURACY | Resistance and Resistivity measurements: R ≤ 2 kΩ: ± (2% of the measured value ± 2 digits) R > 2 kΩ: ± (5% of the measured value ± 2 digits) Voltage measurement: ± (3% of the measured value ± 2 digits) |
READING RESOLUTION | 0.01 Ω in the resistance measurement 0.01 Ωm in the resistivity measurement 0.1 V in the voltage measurement |
OUTPUT CURRENT | The short-circuit current is limited to less than 3.5 mA RMS (according to IEC 61557-5 - 4.5) |
IMMUNITY TO SPURIOUS VOLTAGE INTERFERENCE |
During the R measurement, it allows the presence of spurious voltage up to 7 V. |
EARTH RESISTANCE OF AUXILIARY RODS | In the R measurement it allows Raux up to 50 kΩ with error <30%. |
BATTERY STATUS CHECK | The battery charge status is verified under normal use conditions. |
ADVANCED FEATURES | Automatic detection of abnormal conditions that may cause excessive errors (low battery, too high noise interference, too high test spike resistance) |
SOIL RESISTIVITY COMPUTING | When performing soil resistivity measurements, the operator provides the distance between spikes and the equipment automatically computes soil resistivity using the Wenner method |
