OVERVIEW

The RD3000B ground earth resistance tester was developed based on the latest lightning protection ground resistance detection standards. It is suitable for multi-scenario measurements and can accurately measure ground resistance, soil resistivity, ground voltage, and AC voltage. The instrument has a 20mA test current output capability, integrates digital and microprocessing technology, and supports precise 4-wire, 3-wire, and simple 2-wire methods for measuring ground resistance. By introducing FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and AFC (Automatic Frequency Control) technology, the tester can automatically identify interference and optimize the measurement frequency, effectively reduce the impact of interference, and ensure the accuracy of ground resistance measurement values. Its anti-interference ability and environmental adaptability are remarkable, and the repeated test results show high consistency. It can maintain high precision, stability, and reliability for a long time. It is widely used in related parameter measurement in power, telecommunications, meteorology, oil fields, construction, lightning protection, and industrial electrical equipment.

 FAQ

 

Q: What meter is used to measure earth resistance?

A: A ground earth resistance tester measures ground resistance, ensuring electrical safety. It employs methods like Fall-of-Potential or Clamp-On Testing, which are essential for compliance.

 

Q: How do you use an earth-ground resistance tester?

A: To use an Earth Tester:

1. Locate grounding rods.
2. Insert probes into the ground near rods.
3. Clip tester wires to the rods.
4. Turn on the tester and press “Start.”
5. Read and interpret the displayed resistance.
6. Document the results for reference.

 

Q: Why do we test earth resistance?

A: Earth resistance testing ensures safety by confirming a low-resistance path for fault currents, preventing electrical hazards and equipment damage.
