MeasurementConsiderations

Two‐terminaltestingofearthresistanceisappropriateformostgeneralpurposetestingin

normallyconductivesoil.However,two‐terminalmeasurementsincludetestleadandcontact

resistanceinthemeasurementandtheresultwillbeareadingslightlyhigherthanthetrueearth

resistance.

Whenmeasuredresultsarehigherthandesiredorifmeasurementdirectivesrequiremulti‐

terminaltechniques,switchtothe3or4terminaltechniquesasneeded.
