4.13 Measure mode
The transmitter has the capability of providing impedance
measurements by determining the resultant impedance
across the crocodile clips of the Direct Connection lead
while connected to the utility. These measurements can
be useful when assessing sheath fault severity. It is also
possible to measure potential voltage that may be
present on utilities to warn of potentially dangerous or
harmful voltages present.
In measure mode the measurement is derived from an
AC signal applied to the utility from the transmitter.
Impedance & voltage measurements
1. Connect the Direct Connection leads to the utility and
switch on the transmitter.
2. Hold down the
key until
MEAS
is displayed and
the measuring icon is activated.
The transmitter display will now indicate the voltage
level measured across the connection leads.
3. Press the
key once and the display will indicate
the impedance measured across the connection
leads.
The measurement icon will display the following
symbols:

4. To exit
MEAS
mode hold down the key until the
display reverts back to the normal operating screen.
Impedance measurements using
active frequency
1. Connect the Direct Connection lead to the utility and
switch on the transmitter.
2. Select the preferred frequency and output the signal.
3. Press the
key once and the display will indicate
the impedance measured across the connection
leads and also the output power of the transmitter.
4. Press the
key once to return to the normal
operating screen.
