Press the key. The EM-4058 will automatically apply Wenner’s
equation (below) based on collected data.


= soil resistivity value; will be shown on the display
a = distance (in meters) between rods; specified by the operator
p = insertion depth (in meters) of the rods – the EM-4058 uses 0,25 m
R = resistance value used by the equipment to calculate ρ
The display will then show the soil resistivity value, as in the example
below:
To properly evaluate soil resistivity, measurements must cover the whole
area to be influenced by the grounding system. For an area of up to
10,000 m², it is recommended to perform measurements in at least five
points, arranged as shown in the next image. Two sets of measurements
should be needed for the central point.
