  2. Agenda • Why Earth/Ground Test? • Earth/Ground Testing at a glance • Where DET2/3 fits in the range • Voice of Customer • Target Market & Applications • Technical Details • Features & Benefits • How to sell & Likely Objections • Competitive Comparisons • Summary

  3. Why Earth/Ground Test? • A low earth resistance is required to: • Enable protective devices to operate in good time. • Reduce ground potential rises (GPR). • Minimise the energy of electric shock from GPR during fault: • Step potential. • Touch potential. • Adjacent conductors. • Two types of testing • Soil resistivity: to help design electrical systems • Electrode & Earth resistance: to ensure compliance Safety Design

  4. Earth Testing at a Glance • Many test methods to: • Characterise soil • Check resistance between a system & soil • All tests must set: • Test signal power (V & I) • Test signal frequency • Test Frequency setting is a balance between avoiding noise and getting good soil penetration

  5. Installed Earth System • Systems must be checked regularly • Large systems must have very low resistances <90mΩ • Noisy readings are common in built up areas

  6. Most Common Test Method • Fall of Potential Test • For measuring resistance between an installed system and the soil • Auxiliary current probe must be placed far outside zone of influence • Several readings are taken to build the graph and determine the true resistance

  9. Voice of Customer • Extensive research was completed • Market Needs: • Accuracy and stability of the DET2/2 or better • Measurement at low test current for sensitive sites • Data logging and download • Better weather protection • Resistivity calculation (Wenner) on-board • Better test leads that are easier to use

  10. Target Market & Applications • Power utilities • Electrical contractors / electricians • Industrial plant maintenance personnel • Field service and maintenance personnel • Railways • Hospitals • Electrical testing companies • Petrochemical companies • Specialist Earthing companies • Telecom and Datacom companies • Lightning protection contractors / installers

  11. Technical Details • Main Technical Specifications: • Measure resistances of 1mΩ to 20kΩ • 1mΩ resolution • Accuracy of +/-0.5% of reading, +/-2 digits • 50V and 50mA maximum test power, limited for safety • 10Hz to 200Hz test frequency • Logging of 500 data records with direct download to flash drive or PC • Continuity Mode for 10mΩ to 1kΩ DC tests
