Chauvin Arnoux CA6460 Earth and Resistivity Tester

Chauvin Arnoux CA6460 Earth and Resistivity Tester

The Chauvin Arnoux CA6460 Earth and Resistivity Tester performs earth electrode, ground resistivity and coupling tests using the traditional rod method. Resistance can be measured between 0 and 1999Ω via test currents of 10mA to 0.1mA and the tester is capable of both three- and four-wire testing. Four colour-coded terminals make setting the equipment up for testing very easy and a captive bar allows the user to quickly switch between three- and four-pole testing.

During testing, the measurement range and test current are calculated and applied automatically to aid accuracy whilst three warning LEDs flash to alert the user to issues that may affect measurements: current circuit fault, high resistance, and high noise. Results and unity are clearly displayed on the Chauvin Arnoux CA6460’s backlit digital display.

Leak-proof cladding on the on-site case means that the Chauvin Arnoux CA6460 is resistant to interference and ingress from water or dust. It is also suited for use in noisy/dangerous environments where problems are posed by parasitic voltage, high telluric current, resistive auxiliary connections and more.

The Chauvin Arnoux CA6460 is powered by eight 1.5V batteries which provide enough energy for up to 4500 measurements and boasts an IP53 ingress protection rating. Chauvin Arnoux provide a 12-month warranty with this tester.
