Our Product Advantages

  • Ultra-portable design for field operation
    Compact body weighing only around 2 kg; certain models measure merely 200mm×100mm×60mm. Equipped with a high-capacity built-in lithium battery, it supports thousands of tests per full charge. Single-person transport is available for off-grid outdoor sites such as substations and field poles, outperforming conventional desktop testers by a large margin.
  • High precision and powerful anti-interference performance
    Adopting the 4-wire measurement principle to eliminate contact resistance errors of test leads, the instrument delivers measuring accuracy up to ±0.5%. Its readings stay stable within ±1 digit under strong electromagnetic interference in substations, fully complying with the industry standard DL/T 845.6—2022.
  • Intelligent functions greatly boost testing efficiency
    Fitted with a 7-inch high-brightness touch screen for clear visibility under intense sunlight. It provides constant current output across multiple ranges from 1A to 10A, which automatically breaks through oxide films on measured contacts. Internal non-volatile storage holds up to 1000 test records. Selected models embed intelligent diagnostic algorithms that generate maintenance recommendations, realizing integrated testing, data logging and fault diagnosis.
  • Wide compatibility for all application scenarios
    It performs ground continuity tests for equipment of 110kV and below, and also supports low-resistance measurement. Complete protective circuits against reverse electromotive force and overcurrent are integrated to meet earthing maintenance demands across power, chemical, rail transit and other industries.

FAQ for Handheld Ground Continuity Tester
