Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the Biddle Megger DET 2/110 Digital Earth (Ground) Tester?

The Biddle Megger DET 2/110 is a digital earth (ground) tester designed to accurately measure ground electrode resistance and soil resistivity. It is essential for ensuring electrical safety and system performance in various industrial and scientific applications.

How does the Biddle Megger DET 2/110 measure ground resistance?

The Biddle Megger DET 2/110 measures ground resistance using an AC voltage applied between the H (C) and E electrodes, and the resulting current is measured by an ammeter. The voltage drop between the S (P) and E electrodes is also measured using an AC voltmeter. The ground resistance is calculated from these measured values.

What are the key features of the Biddle Megger DET 2/110?

  • Accurate digital readouts
  • Compact and portable design
  • Wide measurement range
  • Durable construction suited for field use
  • Rechargeable battery power
