MI 3290 Earth Analyser
Tests and Measurements
83
Notes:
Consider displayed warnings when starting the measurement!
High noise currents and voltages in earth could influence the measurement results. The
tester displays the
“noise” warning in this case.
Notes (Probes):
High impedance of S and H probes could influence the measurement results. In this
case,
“Rp” and “Rc” warnings are displayed. There is no pass / fail indication in this
case.
Probes must be placed at a sufficient distance from the measured object.
Note to SER/PAR Model parameter (Example):
Series
– Activates the series equivalent circuit model. Re value is derivate based on the
series model. Test objects description and schematics wiring diagram:
