Description
Product Overview
The Kyoritsu KEW 4106 is a high-precision Earth Resistance and Soil Resistivity Tester designed for professional grounding system analysis, substation commissioning, utility maintenance, and geotechnical investigations.
It supports 4-wire, 3-wire, and 2-wire earth resistance measurements, as well as earth resistivity (ρ) measurement using the Wenner 4-pole method, making it ideal for large grounding systems and soil surveys.
With a powerful 80 mA test current, advanced FFT-based noise filtering, and memory storage for up to 800 results, the KEW 4106 delivers stable and highly accurate measurements even in electrically noisy environments.
