Earth Resistance Meters

Earth resistance meters test the resistance of soil to the passage of electric current to determine the adequacy of the grounding of an electrical system.   This is an indispensable aspect of a safe, properly functioning electrical system.

    Universal Earth Resistance and Resistivity Meter - Overview

    This compact earth resistance and soil resistivity meter enables efficient and easy earth resistance measurement. The MRU-30 meter is surprisingly versatile in nature. It can be used to perform single earthing measurements as well as multiple earthing measurements using additional clamps or electrodes. Additional capabilities include measurement of soil resistivity using the Wenner method, as well as verification of the continuity of equalising connections and protective conductors. Another advantage is the clear transmission of information, which alerts the user to possible dangers or detected irregularities. Information appears on the screen both before and after the test. Applications include measuring single and multiple earthings using auxiliary electrodes and/or clamps, ground resistivity (Wenner method), as well as verifying the continuity of equipotential bondings and protective conductors. It has a high immunity to interference, allowing it to be used even in difficult conditions. It is simple and intuitive to operate, making the measurements easier and faster. The meter has internal memory. The measurement results can be transmitted to a computer for data processing and preparation of documentation from the grounding tests.

    Safety Rating Cat IV at 300V label Safety Rating Cat III at 600V label Bluetooth Enabled label GPS

    Earth Resistance Meter - Overview

    The MRU-200 earth resistance meter is unique in the market as it uses all measurement methods to get earth resistance.  Making sure the ground system has a low earth ground resistance when initially installed is a very important safety check. Making sure the low resistance is maintained is just as important. Resistance of the grounding system might increase when the ground rods are corroded. Over time, soil with high moisture, salt content and high temperatures will corrode connections.  It is therefore recommended that the earthing be checked periodically to make sure there is not a big increase in resistance.

    Electrical Installation  Meter - Overview

    The MPI-540 meter is designed for checking the safety of industrial and domestic electrical installations. The user has the option to register the parameters of electrical networks located at these facilities. This allows for the measurement of the parameters for protection against electric shock using a single universal device while verifying the quality of electricity. The Auto mode allows significant automation of measurements of the meter and makes it possible to test the functioning of residual current circuit breakers, as well as in pre-programmed measuring sequences, which can be extended with their own sequences. Automatic measurement of insulation resistance of 3-, 4- and 5-wire conductors is possible by using an additional AUTO ISO-1000C adapter.
