Hoyt 1824LP Digital Loop Tester

Features:

• Microprocessor-controlled
• Measures Earth Resistance without the need for poles in the ground or external measuring wires
• Earth measurement uses the real earth current path and the current generated by the electric network, without the need for any disconnection
• The Earth Resistance displayed is exactly the earth resistance that the earth current will need to go through if an earth fault occurs
• Displays voltage supply at the transformer (Line to Neutral) without loading the transformer
• Single one smart push button operation; ON, Scroll through results and menus
• Checks wiring integrity (LEDs)
• Auto-off / Auto-ranging (software range)
• Color-coded test leads
• Combined prospective short circuit current, loop, and earth tester
• Loop test for L-E and PSC between L-N
• Voltage test L-N

The 1824 LP is a new generation of instruments for the testing of electrical installations. It has a built-in Earth tester which does not requires the use of poles or long wires. This instrument is useful for fault-finding or commissioning of electrical installations. This new instrument uses a three wires unique principle of operation. It display the main system voltage of the power utility, without loading the wiring. The 1824 LP displays the Loop Impedance between Line and Earth (Z L +Z E )=Z L-E and Prospective Short Circuit between Line and Neutral.
