Test multi-grounded systems without disconnecting
the ground system under test!
The
Ground Resistance Tester Models 6416 and 6417
measure ground rod and
grid resistance without the use of auxiliary rods. Clamp-on ground resistance testers
can be used in multi-grounded systems without disconnecting the ground system
under test or de-energizing them. Models 6416 and 6417 simply clamp around the
ground conductor or rod and measure 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.
Two new features unique to AEMC
®
are test frequency selection and touch
voltage indication. The ability to select the test frequency provides more accurate
results in inductive environments. Displaying voltage derived from current and
resistance measurements provides an extra level of safety for the user, indicating
a potential dangerous touch condition. Both models include a current measurement
function. The probe’s high sensitivity enables measurement of leakage current
flowing to ground or circulating in ground loops from 0.2mA to 40A and resistances
from 0.01 to 1500Ω.
Both models offer battery life information at power-up and Auto-Off for power
management. Additional features are also displayed on the large OLED display to
ensure precise measurements. The Buzzer and Auto Power Off features may be
disabled from the push-buttons at any time.
Both offer an alarm function and a data storage function. In the Alarm mode,
the probe will audibly and visually indicate if the reading is beyond the user
programmed set point. The user may have the alarm activate above or below the
set point. This alarm feature permits quick field checks where only “pass”
or “fail” readings are required.
The data storage function enables the user to conduct field surveys, and to retrieve
and analyze the readings at a later time. The alarm settings and stored data are saved
when the ground tester is turned off. When using the FREE DataView
®
software, the
6417 provides Bluetooth transmission to a PC for analysis and report generation.
