PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
This instrument and its accessories comply with safety standards EN 61010-1,
EN 61010-030, and EN 61010-2-032 for voltages of 600 V in Category IV at an
altitude of less than 2000 m with a pollution degree of not more than 2.
explosion, and destruction of the instrument and of the installations.
The operator and/or the responsible personnel must carefully read and clearly
understand the various precautions to be taken in use. Sound knowledge and
a keen awareness of electrical hazards are essential when using this
instrument.
may be compromised, thereby endangering you.
Do not use the instrument on networks of which the voltage or category
exceeds those mentioned.
Do not use the instrument if it seems to be damaged, incomplete, or poorly
closed.
Before each use, check the condition of the insulation on housing. Any item of
which the insulation is deteriorated (even partially) must be set aside for repair
or scrapping.
Use personal protection equipment systematically.
All troubleshooting and metrological checks must be performed by competent
and accredited personnel.
Avoid impacts on the measurement head, in particular the air gap.
malfunction.
All metal objects or wires connected to the electrical system should be
assumed to be lethal until tested. Grounding systems are no exceptions.
Use extreme caution when using the instrument around energized electrical
equipment.
Never attempt to use the instrument to twist or pry the ground electrode or
ground wire away from the equipment being grounded.

Clamp-on Ground Resistance Tester Model 6416 9
PRODUCT FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The Clamp-on Ground Resistance Tester Model 6416 measures grounding
electrodes and grid resistance without the use of auxiliary rods. Clamp-on ground
resistance testers can be used in multi-grounded systems without disconnecting
the ground system under test. The Model 6416 simply clamps around theground
conductor or rod and measures the resistance to ground. By performing
grounding connections and bonds. Resistance and continuity of grounding loops
around pads and buildings can also be measured.
The Model 6416 includes a current measurement function. The ground tester’s
Battery life information is displayed at power-up and the Auto Power OFF feature
can be enabled for power management. Additional features include the large
OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display that ensures high readability of
data. The Buzzer and Auto Power OFF features can be disabled at any time.
The Model 6416 is equipped with an alarm function and data storage function. In
the Alarm mode, the probe will audibly and visually indicate when the reading is
beyond an input set point. You can also have the alarm activate above or below
“fail” readings are required.
at a later time. The alarm settings and stored data are saved when the ground
tester is turned OFF.
Two new features unique to AEMC® Instruments are test frequency selection and
touch voltage indication.
The ability to select the test frequency provides more accurate measurements in
inductive environments.
Displaying voltage derived from current and resistance measurements provides
an extra level of safety for the user, indicating a potentially dangerous touch
condition.

Clamp-on Ground Resistance Tester Model 6416
FEATURES
Simple and fast clamp-on operation - no leads, no auxiliary rods or spacing
requirements
Ammeter: Current measurements from 0.2 mA to 40 A.
Loop ohmmeter:
The ohmmeter function makes allowance for the presence of inductances in
the loop, making impedance measurements more accurate at low values.
The contact voltage is determined by calculating the product
of the loop impedance and leakage current. The value found is an upper bound
on the voltage between the measurement point and earth, since the
impedance taken into account is that of the whole loop.
Touch voltage display
Large multi-function, bright yellow organic light emitting diode display (OLED)
Display in Standard mode (one screen) or Advanced mode (three screens)
Clamping diameter of 1.38 in (35 mm) accommodating cables up to 1000 kcmil
Displays stored measurements on the display
Measurement hold by the HOLD and AUTO-HOLD functions
Clamp opening made easy by a trigger with a force compensation system
Auto Power OFF function
Rugged Lexan®head and body construction resists breakage
Alarm settings and stored memory information saved during shutdown
NOISE icon and buzzer notify the user to presence of dangerous voltage and
current levels
Designed to EN 61010-1, 600 V CAT IV safety standards
APPLICATIONS
Ground electrode system resistance
Bonding/continuity checks
Ground measurements on Railroad signaling systems
