Checking the measurement
7. Note the displayed value.
8. Wait for a few moments and then re-measure.
9. Move rod S by 10% towards H, along the line between the earth point E and the rod H.

9. Move rod S by 10% towards H, along the line between the earth point E and the rod H.
Measure and note the result.
10. From its initial position, move rod S by 10% towards E, along the line between the earth
point E and the rod H.
If the three values are of the same order of magnitude, the earth measurement is correct. If
not, increase the distance "a" and repeat the measurements.
not, increase the distance "a" and repeat the measurements.
Do not forget to reconnect the earth point after the measurement.
3.2 MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE
This measurement can be performed to determine the coupling resistance between two earth
points. For example, between the neutral and ground earth points (EDF distribution).
