- if no tripping of a earth fault breaker is foreseen (measurement made upstream of the
RCDs),
- if the earth fault breaker concerned is short-circuited for greater accuracy,
→ low (
The connection diagrams are the same as for earth measurements in a live condition, but without the
voltage or current probe (see § 4.2.2).
4.3.3 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
The instrument first checks the resistance of the rod and measures the voltage between PE and
earth, then measures voltages U
If these values are correct, pressing the TEST key starts the measurement: as soon as the result is
available, it is displayed.
Note: for measurements on three-phase systems, the loop impedance must be measured between
each phase conductor, the neutral conductor, and the protective conductor.
4.3.4 MEASUREMENT RESULTS
After the measurement, the measured values and complementary results can be consulted using
