Kyoritsu 4106 Earth Resistance and Resistivity Tester
The Kyoritsu 4106 Earth Resistance and Resistivity Tester uses FFT-based filtering and a selectable 94 to 128 Hz test frequency to deliver stable readings down to 0.001 Ω on the 2 Ω range, even in electrically noisy sites.Overview
The Kyoritsu 4106 is a precision earth resistance and resistivity tester built for electricians and testing engineers who need reliable ground readings on noisy sites. It applies a high test current of up to 80mA and uses FFT-based filtering to reject interference, giving a resolution of 0.001 Ω on its 2 Ω range.
Key Features
- High test current up to 80mA for 0.001 Ω resolution on the 2 Ω range
- FFT-based advanced filtering suppresses noise for stable readings
- Automatic or manual test frequency selection across four bands (94/105/111/128 Hz)
- Large backlit graphic display shows auxiliary spike resistance, frequency, voltage and residual resistance
- Warns of excessive noise and high auxiliary earth spike resistance
- Stores up to 800 measurement results, transferable to a PC via KEW Report software and the included USB adaptor
- Robust IP54-rated housing for outdoor and site use

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is FFT-based filtering important for earth testing in noisy electrical environments?
FFT filtering removes harmonic noise and interference from nearby power lines and equipment, delivering stable earth resistance readings even in electrically hostile industrial or high-voltage areas.
How does a selectable test frequency improve measurement accuracy?
By choosing between 94 and 128 Hz test frequencies, technicians can avoid harmonic interference from local power systems and AC equipment, ensuring repeatable results.
What does measuring earth resistance down to 0.001 Ω enable?
Ultra-fine resolution detects extremely low earth resistances in new installations and identifies marginal conditions in well-established grounding systems used in power distribution and industrial facilities.
When is the 2 Ω range measurement used?
The 2 Ω range measures very low earth resistance in large-scale power grounding systems, transformer installations, and substations where earth resistance must be minimal.
Which facilities benefit most from this advanced earth testing capability?
Power utilities, refineries, data centers, hospitals, and telecom facilities rely on stable earth measurements near electromagnetic noise sources; this tester excels in those challenging environments.
How does FFT filtering reduce testing time on-site?
Accurate readings on the first measurement reduce retesting and troubleshooting delays, allowing technicians to complete comprehensive earth audits faster and more efficiently.
What lead time is typical for advanced diagnostics-grade test equipment?
Specialized instruments may require longer delivery; contact Procure.ae to confirm availability and provide a realistic timeline for this model.
Does Procure.ae offer technical support for complex measurement setup?
