Resistive Balance Test
The Resistive Balance test measures and compares the resistance of each
conductor. This test requires you to short Tip and Ring (T-R) to ground at
the far end (T-R-G short) before proceeding with the test.
Snapshot
The resistive balance Snapshot shows results for Ring, Tip, Loop
resistance, and the pass/fail status for Resistive Balance in
Ω and %.
To access Snapshot page:
1. From the Copper main menu Test Groups, select Multimeter test
.
2. From the Tests menu, select Resistive Balance test to start the test.
By default, the Snapshot page opens.
The current group and the current test which is being measured is
