Overview: the BY2571 digital earth resistance meter replaces the manual hand-cranked generator with advanced medium/large-scale integrated circuits and DC/AC conversion technology, merging three-terminal and four-terminal measurement into a single instrument.
Working principle: an internal DC/AC converter turns DC into a low-frequency constant current that flows through the auxiliary earth electrode (C) and the test object (E). The AC voltage drop across the test object is fed through the auxiliary electrode (P) to an AC amplifier, then detected and displayed. A multiplier switch gives three ranges: 0-2Ω, 0-20Ω and 0-200Ω.
Features: a high-strength aluminium alloy case, a phase-locked-loop synchronous detection method with switched-capacitor filtering for power-frequency and RF interference rejection, and a 3-1/2 digit LCD. The instrument measures earth resistance, low-resistance conductor resistance, soil resistivity and AC earth voltage.
