Earth Resistance Tester EM4055
|
| The
EM-4055 earth tester is a digital, microprocessor controlled
instrument that allows to measure the earth resistance and ground
resistivity (using Wenner´s method), as well as to detect parasitic
voltages present in the ground. This instrument is suitable
to measure earth systems in power substations, industries, distribution
networks, etc., according to IEC 61557-5. |

| Technical Specification |
| APPLICATION |
Earth resistance measuring of simple
or complex electrode systems, Ground resistivity measurements
(Four terminal Wenner´s principle), and Spurious voltage according
to IEC 61557-5 |
| OPERATION FREQUENCY
|
During R measurement operators should
select the following test frequencies: 270 Hz ± 1 Hz or 1470
Hz ± 1 Hz |
| VOLTMETER |
In the voltmeter function, the equipment
operates as a CA conventional voltmeter, making it possible
to measure voltages generated by parasitic currents. |
| MEASUREMENT RANGES
|
Resistance: 0 - 20kOhm (autoranging)
Resistivity: 0 - 50kOhm (autoranging) Voltage: 0 - 60V~ |
| ACCURACY |
Resistance and Resistivity measurements:
± (2% of the measured value ± 2 digits) Voltage measurement:
± (3% of the measured value ± 2 digits) |
| READING RESOLUTION
|
0.01Ohm in the resistance measurement.
0.01Ohm in the resistivity measurement. 0.1V in the voltage
measurement. |
| OUTPUT CURRENT
|
The short-circuit current is limited
to less than 3.5mA r.m.s. (according the IEC 61557-5 - 4.5 )
|
| IMMUNITY TO SPURIOUS
VOLTAGE INTERFERENCE |
During the R measurement, it allows
for the presence of spurious voltage up to 7V~. |
| EARTH RESISTANCE
OF AUXILIARY RODS |
In the R measurement it allows Raux
up to 50kOhm with error < 30% |
| SERIAL DATA OUTPUT
