Test multi-grounded systems without disconnecting

the ground system under test!

The

Ground Resistance Tester Models 6416 and 6417

measure ground rod and

grid resistance without the use of auxiliary rods. Clamp-on ground resistance testers

can be used in multi-grounded systems without disconnecting the ground system

under test or de-energizing them. Models 6416 and 6417 simply clamp around the

ground conductor or rod and measure the resistance to ground. By performing

measurements on intact ground systems, the user also verifies the quality of the

grounding connections and bonds. Resistance and continuity of grounding loops

around pads and buildings may also be measured.

Two new features unique to AEMC

®

are test frequency selection and touch

voltage indication. The ability to select the test frequency provides more accurate

results in inductive environments. Displaying voltage derived from current and

resistance measurements provides an extra level of safety for the user, indicating

a potential dangerous touch condition. Both models include a current measurement

function. The probe’s high sensitivity enables measurement of leakage current

flowing to ground or circulating in ground loops from 0.2mA to 40A and resistances

from 0.01 to 1500Ω.

Both models offer battery life information at power-up and Auto-Off for power

management. Additional features are also displayed on the large OLED display to

ensure precise measurements. The Buzzer and Auto Power Off features may be

disabled from the push-buttons at any time.

Both offer an alarm function and a data storage function. In the Alarm mode,

the probe will audibly and visually indicate if the reading is beyond the user

programmed set point. The user may have the alarm activate above or below the

set point. This alarm feature permits quick field checks where only “pass”

or “fail” readings are required.

The data storage function enables the user to conduct field surveys, and to retrieve

and analyze the readings at a later time. The alarm settings and stored data are saved

when the ground tester is turned off. When using the FREE DataView

®

software, the

6417 provides Bluetooth transmission to a PC for analysis and report generation.
