Earth resistance clamp meter
ENGLISH
Earth resistance clamp is designed for testing earth resistance of any loop system, for example
no only earth resistance of electric power transportation conductors and communication
circuitry, but also earth resistance of electric equipment and lightning arrester can be tested.
Earth resistance clamp is a break through from traditional tester. Neither the supplementary
earth leads nor the break earth equipment is necessary. Ground resistance result can be get
safely and fast only by clamping the ground line.
Additionally, current testing is also provided. High sensitivity clamp meter can measure the
leakage current to 1 mA and neutral current to 20A RMS. It is especially important for testing
ground circuit with strong interference and ripple that will influence the electrical quality.
It is widely used in the field of electric power distribution, telecommunication and architectural
ground.
PRINCIPLE OF MEASUREMENT
RRx : earth resistance value to be tested
R1R2...Rn: multiple parallel earth resistance
Rearth: normally be regard as 0Ω
Rguard wire : normally be regard as 0Ω
RLoop=Rx+Rearth+(R1// R2//...Rn)+Rguard wire
When R1//R2//...Rn<<Rx, then RLoop=Rx
WARNING
• Before measuring, the metal objects or the conductors that connected with the electric
equipment are deadliness danger, earth system is also danger. So when you test the
electric equipment, you must especially pay attention to safety.
• Warning letter that chiseled in the back of your instrument reminds you that the values
must not be exceeded, the measurement ranges and, briefly, the operation of the clamp.
• Do not exceed the permissible overloads of loop current.
• Before switching the instrument on, you must press the trigger several times to ensure the
clamp closing correctly.
• When switching on and the clamp is auto-calibrating, do not open the clamp or hook the
clamp jaw around any conductor.
Read the instructions before using the instrument.
MAINTENANCE
Keep the surfaces of the clamp jaw clean, any dirt may cause malfunction of the clamp.
Use the soft damp cloth to clean the clamp jaw faces, do not use abrasives, solvents,
alcohol.
Avoid any shock, especially the clamp jaw faces.
Avoid the immediate proximity of metallic masses.
After each measurement, press the HOLD button to depress consume of the batteries.
Remove the batteries from the instrument in case of prolonged non-use.
CHANGING THE BATTERIES
When the display appears the
Please follow these steps:
1. Switch off
2. Unscrew the screw on the battery cover
3. Remove the cover
4. Take the battery box out of the instrument
5. Replace new batteries of the same type
6. Reinstall the battery box
7. Replace the battery cover
8. Reinstall the screw
