Frequently Asked Questions

What is earth resistance testing?

Earth resistance testing measures the resistance between an electrical installation's grounding system and actual earth. Effective grounding is essential for personnel safety, equipment protection, and correct operation of protection systems.

What is an acceptable earth resistance value?

For most industrial installations, the target earth resistance is 1 ohm or less, though specific standards (IEC, BS, IEEE) define requirements for different system types. High resistance indicates a poor ground connection requiring remediation.

How often should earth resistance be tested?

We recommend annual testing for industrial facilities, with additional tests after electrical system modifications, lightning strikes, or significant weather events that may have disturbed grounding electrodes.
