Kyoritsu 4102A Earth Tester With Hard Case
The Kyoritsu 4102A is an analog earth resistance tester supplied with a hard case, built to IEC 61010-1 and rated IP54 for dust and drip protection. It uses a 2 mA measuring current so earth resistance tests do not trip the circuit's earth leakage breaker.Overview
The Kyoritsu 4102A is a compact analog earth resistance tester built for accurate grounding checks on electrical installations. Its refined circuit design minimizes interference from stray earth voltage, and the hard case keeps the instrument protected between site visits.
Key Features
- Reads earth resistance directly off the analog scale for fast on-site checks
- Circuit design minimizes influence from earth voltage and auxiliary spike resistance
- Dust and drip proof to IEC 529 IP54 for demanding site conditions
- Built to IEC 61010-1 safety standard with earth voltage measurement capability
- 2 mA measuring current avoids tripping the earth leakage breaker under test
- OK lamp confirms correct lead connection at the C, P and E terminals
- Small, lightweight and shock-resistant case for frequent field use

FAQ
Q: What does the Kyoritsu 4102A measure?
A: It measures earth (ground) resistance and earth voltage on electrical installations, reading the result directly from its analog scale.
Q: Why does the tester use a 2 mA measuring current?
A: The low 2 mA current lets you carry out earth resistance tests without tripping the earth leakage circuit breaker protecting the circuit under test.
Q: What case does this version include?
A: This SKU ships with a rigid hard case for extra protection of the tester and its test leads during transport and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a dedicated earth resistance tester important for facility safety?
Earth resistance testing verifies that grounding systems safely dissipate fault current; poor earth resistance can allow dangerous voltage on equipment frames and cause shock hazards.
What makes the 2 mA current measurement significant?
A low test current avoids tripping sensitive earth leakage breakers (RCBs) during testing, allowing technicians to complete earth measurements on live circuits without disrupting power.
When is an earth clamp tester used versus a resistance tester?
The 4102A is ideal for two-point (spike and probe) earth testing on specific installations; clamp testers work better for non-invasive testing without driving spikes into ground.
How often should facilities test earth resistance?
Most standards recommend annual testing; more frequent testing is prudent in high-corrosion coastal areas or after electrical modifications to ensure consistent earth system integrity.
Is the hard case version better for mobile maintenance teams?
The hard case offers superior protection for equipment transported frequently across job sites, though both versions measure earth resistance identically.
Can this tester work in noisy electrical environments?
The 4102A is built to IEC 61010-1 standards and rated IP54, providing reliable measurements in dusty and electromagnetically noisy industrial or outdoor settings.
What is the delivery timeframe for earth testing equipment in the GCC?
Lead times depend on regional stock and your specific configuration; contact Procure.ae to request a quote and confirm availability.
Does Procure.ae support installation of earth monitoring systems?
Procure.ae supplies the test equipment; for site-specific grounding system design and installation, consult a licensed electrical engineer or contractor.
What measurement capabilities does the 4102A offer?
The tester measures earth resistance using a 2 mA test current, allowing non-invasive compliance checking on circuits with sensitive protective devices.
Is the hard case included, or sold separately?
The model 4102A-H includes a hard protective case with the tester; the 4102A variant comes with a soft case.
What is the warranty period for this earth tester?
Contact Procure.ae to confirm Kyoritsu warranty terms for the 4102A series in your region.
