Earth meters
At PCE-Group you will find earth meters to determine ground resistance for both specific and ohm resistances. Earth meters are powered by batteries and have a clock timer function (3 minutes), Data-Hold function, a 3  ½  positions LCD display and their dimensions are 163 x 100 x 50 mm. Resistance ranges come from 20, 200 to 2000 ohms. They have a resolution of 10 / 100 mΩ / 1 Ω. Earth meters measure resistance by means of a constant reverse current (approx. 800 Hz, 2 mA). To measure ground voltage a rectifier is used  (5 kΩ/V aprox. 40...500 Hz). Earth meters PKT-2630 series have a small format as well as multiple functions. Now, you can  see the difference between the ground conductor, phase conductor and the neutral one without any difficulty. Defective connections, old cables as well as a faulty ground conductor will be now easily discovered. At the beginning, earth meters were created specially to be used in medicine to determine discharge current in hospital beds and stretchers. If you have any doubt regarding our earth meters call us on +44 ( 0 ) 191 377 3398 and our engineers and technicians will be available to help you asses of the ground resistance meter that best suits your needs as well as of the rest of measuring instruments available from PCE Group.
