Test the Ohm Function
Earth Bond Resistance Accuracy Tests
To test earth bond resistance accuracy, complete the test steps in
procedure:
1. Connect the DUT
in a 2-wire configuration.
2. Set the Fluke 5320A to the low resistance source function (L).
3. Turn the DUT rotary function switch to the Ω function.
4. Apply the calibrator output listed in
output to Short and press the ZERO button on the DUT. Change the 5320A Ohms to 2-Wire
mode.
5. Press T and make sure that the DUT reads within the display reading limits shown in
Table
9.
6. Connect the Fluke 5320A high resistance output terminals to the DUT COM and Ω
terminals.
7. Set the Fluke 5320A to the high resistance source function (H).
8. Press T and make sure that the reading is within the display reading limits for
Step 4.
