Wind Turbine Lightning Protection Systems Tester RMO10EH

A typical application is accurate low resistance measurement during manufacturing, commissioning, and maintenance inspections on non-inductive test objects such us:

• Lightning protection systems (different applications)
• High and medium voltage disconnecting switches
• High-current busbar joints
• Terminals of the conductors on HV power lines
• Continuity test of protective bonding conductors
• Earthing systems continuity verification
• Oil and gas pipelines bonding

Wind turbine lightning protection systems testing using RMO-EH

Due to the increase in height of the wind turbines and exposed location, the risk of direct lightning strikes and corresponding damage becomes considerable. To protect the wind turbines, the structure must have a very low resistance path to the ground. The RMO-EH is the perfect solution for the low resistance measurement of wind turbine lightning protection conductors. It is lightweight, battery operated, supported with long test leads, and can easily be lifted with the crane to the desired test point. A test current of 1 A or higher is recommended for this test.

Ground grid continuity and integrity verification using RMO-EH

For electrical substations and other facilities in which the availability of power supply is limited or when the lightweight, handheld, and easily portable test set is required, our battery-operated RMO-EH device is ideal to verify the condition of the earthing systems. It provides a maximum of 10 A test current, and test leads even up to 200 m (on reels). The weight of the RMO-EH is less than 1 kg.

Test set

The instrument has dedicated test leads, short ones, and a long one on a cable reel, with click locking connectors, which makes RMO-EH ideal for testing the continuity of lightning protection conductors of the wind turbines or similar applications.
