* Measure earth electrode resistance and soil resistivity
* Optimised for testing complex earth systems such as communications earth systems
* Test in accordance with BS 7430 earthing and grounding specifications, BS-EN-62305 lighting protection regulations and IEEE Standard 81
* Suitable for railway applications
* High resolution of 1mΩ makes it suitable for verifying earth (ground) systems
* Perform two-, three- and four-pole resistance tests
* Auto-ranging resistance range: 0.001Ω to 20.00kΩ
* Equipped with an automatic frequency selection (resolution 0.5Hz)
* Ascertains the frequency with the least noise and runs the selected test at that frequency
* Lead Null function: compensates for lead resistance up to 10Ω
* Accuracy: ±3% (±2 digits)
* Particularly well suited to performing four-terminal resistance tests that eliminate the resistance of circuit currents
* Provides highly accurate results for soil resistivity tests
* Determine the optimum electrode design
* Perform archaeological and geological investigations
* Perform continuity tests at 200mA
* Continuity range: 0.01Ω to 1kΩ
* Leakage current test: 0.00A to 2.00A
* Test voltage, test frequency and filters can be easily adjusted
* The microprocessor-controlled system improves the instrument’s versatility and provides excellent error detection
* Backlit, colour, 5.25-inch QWVGA display
* View a live trace of the measurements via the display in order to see the amount of noise present in the system-under-investigation
* Measurements and test details are indicated on the display
* Can calculate resistivity immediately using either a Wenner or Schlumberger method
* Extensive internal memory with the capacity to save an entire day’s results
* Download results to a flash drive
* Download results to a PC with Megger’s Power DB™ Software installed
* Robust, weatherproof design
