The MEGGER ® DET3/2 Digital Earth

Three- or four-terminal measurement selected by a switch
50 volt maximum output voltage for safety and convenience
Direct-reading 3 1/2-digit L.C.D.
Four ranges covering measurements from 0,01 W to 19,99 k W
The MEGGER DET3/2 Digital Earth Tester is a compact instrument designed to measure earth electrode resistance and soil resistivity. The instrument uses the four-terminal method of measurement, in which the resistance of the current circuit does not affect the reading. The instrument circuit has been designed so the resistance of the potential circuit also does not affect the measurement. Pressing a latchable button converts the instrument from its four-terminal measurement mode to a three-terminal one. The reversing d.c. test current has a frequency of 128 Hz, which avoids possible interference from other 50 and 60 Hz stray currents in the vicinity of the earth electrode under test. In the interests of safety, the maximum test voltage has been limited to 50 V.

Applications

The DET3/2 Digital Earth Tester is a reliable instrument, able to measure the earth resistance of both simple and complex electrode systems. They may be used to test in accordance with BS 7430 (1991), BS7671, the IEE wiring regulations, NFC15-100, IEC364 and German specification VDE 0413 Part 7 (1982). The instrument is suitable for soil resistivity measurements, which are used to establish the optimum earth electrode system design and location, to avoid expensive reworking of electrical installations. It is also suitable for performing archeological and geological investigations.

Features

• Direct indication of noise and high spike resistance (current and potential)
• Comply with the testing require-ments of British and VDE spec-ifications
• Powered by a hand-cranked gen-erator for field independence

Earth Resistance Ranges
0,01 to 19,99 ½
0,1 to 199,9 ½
1,0 W to 1,999 k½
10 ½ to 19,99 k½

Accuracy (23° C ±2° C)
±2% of reading ±3 digits
Total Service Error: ±5% of reading
±3 digits

Comply With Standards
BS 7430
VDE 0413 Part 7 (1982)

Test Frequency
128 Hz ±0,5 Hz

Test Current
20-Ohm Range: 10 mA a.c. rms
200-Ohm Range: 1 mA a.c. rms
2- and 20-k½ Ranges: 100 µA a.c. rms
Test current (= short-circuit current) is
constant throughout the range.

Interference
Interference voltages of 20 V ±5% peak-to-peak, 50 Hz in the potential circuit will have a maximum effect of ±1% on the reading obtained for the 20 ½ to 2 k½ ranges. For the 20 k½ range, this interference voltage is reduced to 16 V ±1,0 V peak-to-peak at full-scale deflection.
