    4. Instrument Layout 5. Measurement Theory • Feature callouts This instrument can measure the earth resistance to earth in a multi-earthed system. Let’s Transformer jaw regard earth resistance under test as Rx, and the other earth resistances as R1, R2, …Rn. Lever Backlight button Switches on/off the backlight...
  • Page 6: Preparation For Measurement

    6. Preparation for Measurement By applying the Voltage (V) to the circuit from the transformer jaw (CT1), current I is flowing in relation to the earth resistance. R can be determined by calculation after measuring the current with the other transformer jaw (CT2). In this case, R displayed in this meter can be CAUTION regarded as Rx because Rs can be regarded small enough against Rx.
