The AEMC INSTRUMENTS Model 6424 is a digital ground resistance tester for electrical safety professionals performing 3-pole and 2-pole resistance measurements with auto-ranging capability.
The Digital Ground Resistance Tester Model 6424 performs 3-pole ground resistance, 2-pole resistance, AC voltage and current measurements. This direct reading tester is auto-ranging and easy to use – simply connect the leads, press to measure, and read. Features a large backlit LCD display, low battery indicator, and overrange indication. Comes with 3 safety color-coded terminals for easy hookup. Measures voltage up to 600V AC/DC and AC current up to 60A with optional MN72 current probe. Powered by 6 AA NiMH rechargeable batteries. Available in basic unit or complete kits with 150ft or 300ft test leads.
