In the field of electrical engineering, an earth fault is a fault with a high risk potential. An earth fault is a fault situation in which one phase conductor is in contact with the earth. Consequently, a power supply system in which the neutral point is grounded is called an earth fault. In the case of an earth fault, electrical current flows to earth, resulting in an earth short circuit.

The Ground measuring DET24C earth leakage tester is a digital earth tester and offers a possibility for accurate RMS current measurement. The DET14C and DET24C ground testers allow you to measure without seperating the earth electrode, increasing measurement integrity and reliability over products with interlocking teeth. Other improvements over current generation products include improved accuracy and up to three hundred percent longer battery life. In electrically noisy environments, the built-in filter function provides increased immunity to interference. The unit’s ability to measure the current flow in an underground cable is a useful safety feature, especially when the ground cable needs to be disconnected.

The Ground measuring DET24C and DET14C ground testers represent a new generation of clip-on ground testers. These devices induce a test current into grounded systems and measure the ground resistance in multi ground installations without disconnecting the ground connection. They offer access, advanced features, ease of use and CAT IV 600V safety protection. They feature flat jaws and prevent dirt build-up, increasing measurement integrity and reliability over products with interlocking teeth. Other improvements over current generation products include improved accuracy and up to 300 percent longer battery life. In electrically noisy environments, the built-in filter function provides increased immunity to interference.
