6416 Clamp-On Ground Resistance Testers
|
|
|
|
The Ground
Resistance Tester Model 6416 measures ground rod and grid resistance and
impedance
|
|
without the use of auxiliary rods. Clamp-on ground
resistance testers can be used in multi-grounded
|
|
systems without disconnecting or de-energizing
the ground system under test it. The Model 6416 simply
|
|
clamps around the grounding electrode or
conductor and measures the resistance to ground. By
|
|
performing measurements on intact ground systems,
the user also verifies the quality of the grounding
|
|
connections and bonds. Resistance and continuity of
grounding loops around pads and buildings
|
|
may also be measured.
|
|
|
|
Three
new features unique to AEMC® are:
|
|
· Test
frequency selection provides more accurate results in inductive environments
|
|
· Touch
voltage indication indicates the voltage on the display along with a warning
buzzer when
|
|
the voltage derived from current and resistance measurements detect a
potentially dangerous
|
|
touch condition
|
|
· Loop
resistance indication alerts the user to the fact that
the measurement may not be ground resistance
|
|
|
|
The
Model 6416 includes a high sensitivity measurement function enabling
measurement of leakage current
|
|
flowing to ground
or circulating in ground loops from 0.2mA to 40A and resistances from 0.01 to
1500Ω.
|
|
It
also offers battery life information at power-up and Auto Power OFF power
management. The buzzer and
|
|
Auto
Power OFF features may be disabled at any time.
