RS PRO ET5300 Earth Tester, 2kΩ

This earth & ground resistance tester from our trusted and reliable own brand RS PRO is a high quality device used to test a range of equipment such as motors, generators, wires and switch gear to ensure a safe path to earth is present and correct grounding is achieved in the event of utility over voltage or lightning strike. This earth resistance meter features a large back lit LCD dual display and a user friendly interface, along with other excellent features including test hold function and zero automatic adjustment, providing a powerful yet easy to use device.

This RS PRO electronic digital earth resistance tester is a direct replacement of the conventional hand generator type tester, specially designed for measurement of the resistance of earthing used in the electrical equipment as well as for measurement of ground resistance. It can also be used for measurement of voltage AC, voltage DC and resistance making it a very versatile device. This instrument has wide application for testing earthing installation in power based industries, telecommunication networks and electrical traction systems.

Grounding is an essential element for any electrical installation as it protects appliances and stabilises voltage levels. Earthing is also important is it provides a safe path for electrical currents to travel to earth in the event of over voltage or lightning strike, ultimately preventing injury through electric shock or death.
