Đặc tính điện trở đất và ứng dụng của máy đo điện trở đất

Soil resistance is an essential technical parameter that technicians need to understand. The ground resistance meter is a good choice to assist users in determining technical parameters about the spread of current in the ground. Help them calculate and design lightning protection points, voltage balance, as well as build telecommunications, signal and data transmission projects effectively.

Concept of earth resistance

Earth resistance is basically the resistance of a cube-shaped block of earth with dimensions of 1m³, through which current flows from one side to the opposite side. Measuring ground resistance is very important during construction, ensuring the safety of lightning protection devices. After measuring the ground resistance value, the technician will proceed to connect the lightning protection system for household appliances, electric poles, and buildings to ensure safety.

Concept of earth resistance

Why is it necessary to measure ground resistance?

In essence, measuring ground resistance for lightning protection systems is to evaluate the safety status of the system, ensure safety for users and avoid the risk of fire and explosion. Besides, measuring ground resistance also helps minimize damage and increase the life of grounding equipment. Currently, earth resistance measurement is calculated and applied according to Vietnamese standard TCVN 4756:1989.

Characteristics of earth resistance meters

Earth resistance meters are mostly designed as handheld, making it easy for users to conduct measurements.

Earth resistance measuring instruments are used to test and predict insulation resistance, as well as the performance of insulating materials or equipment. This device has a flexible structure, suitable for many different applications. With a compact design, users can easily conduct measurements and receive results quickly and with high accuracy.

This meter also works as a multi-function power meter. For example, the Hioki FT6380 Earth Clamp Meter enables ground resistance measurements for multi-platform systems, measuring leakage current with high sensitivity and 0.01 mA resolution (within 20.00 mA ), and measure load current up to 60.0 A.

6 early signs of a burnt start capacitor to avoid losing millions

"Silent capacitor burnout" refers to a phenomenon where a start capacitor gradually loses capacitance without exploding or emitting smoke, making it difficult for the user to detect the issue until the motor has sustained severe damage. The appliance continues to operate but runs sluggishly, overheats, and consumes twice the normal amount of electricity. Without periodic inspections, a component costing only a few tens of thousands of dong could force you to replace the entire motor, air conditioner compressor, or ceiling fan an expense running into the millions.
