![]() | EM3900 Lightning Protection Specialized Standard Resistor Product Series : Lightning Protection Standard Resistor Main FeaturesUsed for calibrating instruments such as earth resistance testers and equipotential testers. Scales: 1mΩ, 10mΩ, 100mΩ, 1Ω, 10Ω, 100Ω, 1kΩ, 100kΩ (8 ranges) Range: 10⁻³ ~ 10⁵Ω Accuracy: 0.05% Power: 1/2W Resistor: High-precision wirewound resistor |
The EM3900 Lightning Protection Specialized Standard Resistor consists of nine 1/2W high-precision wirewound resistors. Calibration allows for direct switching and testing without changing test leads. Its stable performance and robust construction make calibration test particularly convenient. The high-precision wirewound resistors feature a maximum accuracy of 0.05%. Available resistance values include 1mΩ, 10mΩ, 100mΩ, 1Ω, 10Ω, 100Ω, 1kΩ, and 100kΩ, fully meeting the 10⁻³ ~ 10⁵Ω range specified in National Meteorological Administration Order No. 38, “Administrative Measures for the Qualification and Inspection of Lightning Protection Devices.” This standard resistor is primarily used for calibrating instruments such as earth resistance testers and equipotential testers. It is widely used in building quality inspection stations, supervision companies, construction companies, lightning protection companies, and power companies.
ETCRMETER is a high-end brand of ETCR. All products are manufactured by ETCR, which also provides technical support and after-sales service.
