2-wires method: This method is a simple method for measurement
that does not use
an
auxiliary earthing
probe.
Use
the earth electrode
with the minimal existing earth ground resistance value as auxiliary
earth electrode and connect two simple testing wires (in which

fire hydrants and other metal buried objects, common earthing of
