Hazardous area testing of bonding conductors

New from Newson Gale is a multifunction
portable meter designed to
enable engineers and technicians to
test bonding and continuity in
hazardous areas, in addition to other
electrical data collection. The meter
is said to be particularly useful for
carrying out periodic tests of
grounding (earthing) and bonding
connectors and conductors, either
on permanently bonded equipment
or temporary devices
such as grounding
clamps, cables and
reels.

The unit is also
suitable for testing
conductive or semiconductive
hose
assemblies used for
transfer of
flammable or
combustible
products where it is essential to
achieve continuity over the complete
hose length, including end-fittings.

In addition to bonding/continuity
(resistance), the easy to use unit
offers several other metering
options, including Voltage, current,
capacitance and temperature.
