Efficient Ground Testing Without DisconnectionThe Metravi CET-05 enables precise measurement of ground resistance and leakage current in just seconds, eliminating the cumbersome process of disconnecting earth electrodes. Operators can swiftly clamp onto rods or conductors up to 32mm in diameter, making regular maintenance and safety checks far more convenient and reliable.
Advanced Features for Reliable ResultsThis tester supports data storage for up to 99 groups, automatic self-calibration upon startup, and includes a low battery indicator for uninterrupted operation. The large backlit LCD display ensures readings are clear even in low-light conditions, while the fast response time helps users work more efficiently on-site.
FAQ's of Metravi CET-05 Clamp On Ground Resistance Tester:
Q: How does the Metravi CET-05 measure ground resistance without disconnecting the electrode?
A: The tester uses a clamp-on design to surround the ground conductor. By inducing a test signal and measuring the response, it calculates resistance and leakage current without requiring the ground electrode to be disconnected, minimizing downtime and improving safety.
Q: What types of conductors or ground rods can be tested with this instrument?
A: The Metravi CET-05 is suitable for ground rods and conductors up to 32mm in diameter, offering compatibility with most standard-sized earth electrodes and grounding systems in industrial or utility settings.
Q: When should I use the data storage feature?
A: Data storage is especially useful during surveys or scheduled maintenance, allowing users to record up to 99 measurement groups for later review and documentation, ensuring consistent record-keeping and simplifying reporting tasks.
Q: Where is this clamp-on tester most effectively used?
A: It is ideal for electrical substations, commercial buildings, industrial plants, and infrastructure applications where ground resistance and leakage current need routine monitoring without disrupting operations.
Q: What is the process for automatic self-calibration on this device?
A: Self-calibration is activated automatically upon startup, ensuring accurate results by compensating for any drift or changes in environmental conditions before measurement begins.
Q: How do I benefit from its CAT III 300V rating?
A: The CAT III 300V safety rating provides protection against transient voltages typically found in distribution-level circuits, making the tester safe for use in most industrial and commercial environments.
