Megger DET2/2 Auto Earth Tester

The MEGGER® DET2/2 Auto Earth Tester is a robust compact instrument designed for measuring earth electrode resistance and soil resistivity. It uses the four terminal method of measurement which eliminates the resistance of the current circuit from the measurement. The circuit design ensures that the resistance of the potential circuit does not affect the measurement during practical testing.

The maximum output voltage is limited to 50 V for safety when performing a test and convenience when re-positioning test spikes. The instrument is auto-ranging relieving the operator of any concern as to which resistance range to use. The low service error and an IP 54 environmental specification enable accurate results to be obtained in ‘unfriendly’ testing conditions.

The DET2/2 Earth Tester is a reliable instrument designed for larger or more complex earthing systems, including communications earthing systems and difficult testing environments. It may be used to test in accordance with BS 7430 (1991), the IEE Wiring Regulations and VDE 0413 part 7 (1982). The instrument is suitable for soil resistivity measurements, which are used to establish the optimum electrode design and site, as well as perform archeological and geological investigations.

Resistivity tests assist in the design of a correct earth system and avoid the cost of re-working electrode installations. Earth testing kits, which include suitable test spikes and test leads, are available separately.
