  • Page 7: Principal Of Resistance Measurement

    5. PRINCIPLE OF RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT The basic principle of the Clamp-On Earth Resistance Tester is to measure earth resistance and the leakage current in the loop. (See below figure 1). The clamp jaw is composed of a voltage coil and a current coil. The voltage coil provides the excitation signal and induces a potential voltage (V) on the loop under test.

    6.2. Battery Voltage Check When switching on the clamp meter and the LCD displays the low battery voltage symbol " ", it means the battery is low, please replace the battery. The battery power must be sufficient to ensure the accuracy of the measurement.

    When measured with a clamp meter, its equivalent circuit is as follows: "R1" is the predicted earth resistance. "R0" is the equivalent resistance of the earthing resistances of all other towers in parallel. Although, from the strict earthing theory, due to the existence of the so-called "mutual resistance", "R0"...

    manually, and it is even impossible when "N" is large. In addition to ignoring mutual resistance, this method does not have the measurement error caused by ignoring "R0". However, users need to pay attention to this, in your earthing system, there are several earthing bodies connected to each other, and the same number of test values must be measured for the program to solve, not more or less.
  • Page 13 The second step is to connect "RB" and "RC" as shown in the figure below. Use the clamp meter to read the second data "R2". The third step is to connect "RC" and "RA" as shown in the figure below. Use the clamp meter to read the third data "R3".
