Earth/Ground Tester
Introduction
At locations involving the generation, distribution and consumption of electri- cal energy, certain safety measures must be met in order to protect human life. In many cases, these safety measures are national and international regulations which must be checked regularly. Grounding, the connection of exposed con- ductive parts to the earth in case of a fault, represents the most fundamental safety measure. There are requirements for grounding of transformers, high and medium voltage power pylons, railway tracks, tanks, vats, foundations and lightning protection systems.
The effectiveness of grounding systems should be checked using a ground test instruments such as the 1625 which checks the effectiveness of connections to the ground. The 1625 provides the perfect solution by combining the latest technology into a compact,
