It only measure earth resistance of pit.ITS UNIT IS OHM.
It has two electrode (i.e potential electrode and current electrode) with respect to earth plate under test. The potential electrode will fixed 15mtr from earth plate under test and current electrode 30mtr from earth plate under test.
<3> IF WE ROTATE THE HANDLE OF EARTH TESTER IN OPEN CONDITION THEN THE READING WILL BE 0 OHMS. BUT MEGGER WILL SHOWS INFINITE OHMS.
<4 >MEGGER HAS THREE TERMINALS <i>LINE
