I .Introduction
HT5600 Clamp Earth Resistance Tester with multi-function
used in evaluation on ground resistance. Our company are
experienced in designing and manufacturing ground tester.
Is hand portable and is equipped with the necessary
attachments. It is easy to use. Operators can use it just following
this instruction without participating in specialized training.
II .Overview
It is important for electricity, telecommunications, electrical
equipment to ground. Grounding resistance is widely used in the
judgment of the grounding quality of system. Accurate, rapid,
simple, reliable grounding resistance measurement methods are
important in the field of lightning protection grounding technology.
ET3000 Multi-function dual-clamp grounding resistance tester is
suitable in telelecommunications, electricity, meteorology, computer
room, power distribution lines, transmission line tower, gas stations,
factories grounding grids, lightning and so on.
Can be used in traditional auxiliary electric pole grounding
resistance measuring and also can be used without auxiliary
electric-pole which can test the grounding resistance in duty without

7
contacting the grounding system and load. Auxiliary electric-pole
test method can be used just in single-point grounding system or
strong interference conditions.
III .Main Features
1. Dual-Clamp method & pile method:
Grounding for any place, multi-point or single point grounding;
2. Anti-interference ability:
Self-generated high frequency current can be used to filtered
harmonic interference of industory power ,so it will measure
accurately under 500KV substation;
3. Wide measuring range, high resolution:
Range from 0.01Ω ~ 200Ω, resolution of 0.01Ω, grounding
resistance lower than 0.7Ω can be measured accurately;
4. Great gag Design:
Gag diameter is 50mm (standard configuration) and it can
meet with flat iron and steel wire ;special gag custom sizes can be
customized;
5. Large-capacity data storage:
200 sets of measurements can be stored;
6. Easy to operate with single-person:
Chinese operation interface, small size, light weight, portable
explosion-proof box, easy to carry for outdoor measurement.

V. Panel Features
1、button features
The tester has total seven buttons, the following specific
features:
“Power Supply”: if has opening, after five minutes without

9
any operation , it will be automatically shutdown.
“Two-clamp method▲”: In multi-point grounding of the
grounding grid, to test this way; In addition, other functions, the key
for the cursor up or increase the bond.
“Four-leads method▼”: Click here to play auxiliary keys
used to pile measured grounding resistance, while, in other
functions, the key for the cursor down or reduce the bond.
“ ”: The left cursor key
“ ”: The right cursor key
“Test”: When using the two-clamp method or four-leads
method, this key to start measurement.
“Confirmed”: Click here to enter the selected function.
2、Test port(refer to Figure 1)
(Figure 1: Terminal panel)
The instrument interfaces to connect with the outside world
there are two groups: the two-clamp method use upper "Receive"
and "Transmit" two jack; the four-leads method using the "C2",
"P2", "P1" and "C1" four jack.
Charge jack located at the bottom left of the equipment, when
the instrument displays the upper-left corner of the low battery

10
indicator, please use the company’s charging instrument to charge.
It’s the smart charger for the battery charger. When the battery is
full, that is, the charger indicator light to turn off automatically stop
charging the battery, effectively preventing battery overcharge.
Note: if the instrument will not be used in long-term, you also
should be carried out regularly charge the battery (such as two
months) ,in order to avoid battery over-discharge damage. Do not
charge the battery when use ordinary batteries.
VI. Measurement principle and application
(1) Two- clamp method
1、The measuring principle
The method has many advantages. First, easy to operate. The
test can be executed when the device is working. No measuring
probes are needed and it is not necessary to separate the
electrodes. The grounding resistance can be obtained by clamping
the grounding conductor. Second, the method has high accuracy
to 0.01Ω. Third, the method has high anti-interference ability and
the line frequency harmonics can be filtered. Fourth, it can be a
way to piling method. In many conditions (such as housing or
regions covered with cement-intensive), it is difficult to adopt the
way of piling to measure the grounding resistance. But it is not
necessary for double clamp method. However there is shortage of
this method too. And it can not measure the grounding resistance
for a single point grounding system.
The measurement principle be summarized as follows: The
