  • Page 15: Measurements Of The Earth Resistance

    The parameters of the pulse are defined by two values: the duration of the pulse leading edge t and the duration of the semi-peak t The DB-1 demonstration board permits to perform measurements of the earth resistance of three distinct earth electrodes, namely R . Earth resistance measurement R is also pos- sible using the clamp method.
