Displayed results:
R
.............. PE conductor resistance
Notes:
High fluctuations of mains voltage can influence the measurement results (the noise sign
is displayed in the message field). In this case it is recommended to repeat few
measurements to check if the readings are stable.
This measurement will trip-out the RCD in RCD-protected electrical installation if test
Rpe is selected.
Select Rpe(rcd) measurement to prevent trip-out of RCD in RCD protected installation.
