EST401钳形接地电阻测试仪

Overview

The ERITECH® EST401 is a hand-held, clamp-on Ground Resistance Tester which measures ground rod and small grid resistance in any season without the use of auxiliary ground rods. The clamp-on ground resistance tester from ERICO® can be used in multi-grounded systems without disconnecting the ground under test. By performing measurements on intact ground systems, the user can measure the resistance to ground and verify the quality of the grounding connections and bonds. Resistance and continuity of grounding loops around pads and buildings may also be measured with the tester.

The ERITECH EST401 includes a current measurement function. The probe’s high sensitivity enables measurement of current leakage flowing to ground or circulating in ground loops down to 1mA and neutral currents to 30Arms. This feature provides additional information that is becoming vital as distribution ground networks carry higher levels of noise and harmonics, which affect power quality.

The ERITECH EST401 has a rugged Lexan® body for durability. A double-walled Lexan shell (or equivalent polycarbonate) encases the probe heads for extra strength. Overall construction and mechanical design ratings such as drop test, weatherproofing against water projections, shock and vibration meet or exceed IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards. The product has been designed to meet IEC 1010.

Battery life information is given at power-up and Auto-Off for power management. Additional features such as resistance and current measurement are displayed on the large LCD.

The ERITECH EST401 is ideal for measuring ground current and ground resistance at pole ground rods, service entrances, pad-mounted transformers, transmission towers, service panels, phone pedestals and central office locations. Extended distances between installations such as high-tension towers will not adversely affect the measurement results.
