The AEMC 3711 clamp-on ground resistance tester measures ground rod and grid resistance in any environment without the use of auxiliary ground rods. Clamp-on ground resistance testers are used on multi- grounded systems without disconnecting the ground under test. The simply clamps around the ground conductor or rod and measures the resistance to ground fast and accurately.

The AEMC 3711 clamp-on ground resistance tester includes a current measurement function. The probe's high sensitivity enables measurement of leakage current flowing to ground or circulating in ground loops down to 1 mA as well as neutral and phase currents to 10 A RMS. This feature provides additional information, which is vital in distribution ground networks carrying higher levels of noise and harmonics, that affect power quality.

Applications for the AEMC 3711 clamp-on ground resistance tester:

  • Measure electrical ground rod and grid resistance
  • Use on multi-grounded systems without disconnecting the ground rod under test
  • Measure resistance and continuity of grounding loops around pads and buildings
  • Measure leakage current flowing to ground or circulating in ground systems

The AEMC 3711 clamp-on ground resistance tester ships complete with:

  • Calibration loop
  • 9V Battery
  • Hard case
  • Manual
