(2) Measurement of earth voltage
Earth voltage measurement should be done before measurement of earth resistance to check the amount of earth voltage, as voltage more
than 10 V is likely to cause larger error in the measurement of earth resistance. In this case, cut the measured object from the power supply
and wait until the earth voltage drop for another measurement.
(3) Measurement of earth resistance
Rotate the switch to 3 POL position, press down the key of MEASURE to start the measurement, with the key LED turned on and glittering.
When the measurement comes to the end automatically, the buzzer will give a sound, the key LED will go off and the data will be held
automatically.
Attention: > LIMIT4000Ω displayed on LCD warns that the auxiliary earth resistance of the auxiliary earth rods is so high that the
current can not flow across the meter. Check if the test leads become loose and the amount of the earth resistance of the auxiliary
earth rods. In a measurement, test leads twisted together or becoming contacted each other will cause error in the measurement;
therefore, make sure that a measurement is done when the test leads are separate. Besides, too much auxiliary earth resistance will
bring unacceptable error to the measurement, therefore, respectively bury deep auxiliary earth rods such as P and C in too wet sites
and ensure good connection in each joint.
4.4 Data Storage
The meter is capable of storing up to 100 groups of measurement data, which will not be lost even in case of power cuts.
(1)When the meter is standing by, press MEMO to call the display for data storage, with "MEMO" glittering at the lower right corner of LCD;
should the existing memory has been used for storage of other data, "USED" would be shown on LCD when pressing MEMO to exit data
storage.
(2)Press "ENTER" briefly to switch A bit of a memory position and 10-bit and the memory position can be scanned by pressing "
(3)Press "ENTER" for 2 seconds to store a group of data in a memory and in case that there are data stored before in the memory, the
current data will cover the previous data.
4.5 Data Reading
Data reading function of the meter allows you to check the historical measurement stored in the meter.
(1)When the meter is standing by, press MEMO to call the display for data storage, with "MEMO" glittering at the lower right corner of LCD;
should the existing memory has been used for storage of other data, "USED" would be shown on LCD when pressing MEMO to exit data
storage.
(2)Press "ENTER" briefly to switch A bit of a memory position and 10-bit and the memory position can be scanned by pressing "
