Why measure low resistance?

06 December, 2010 | TechRentals

Measuring low resistance is an important electrical test because it helps identify components where the resistance has exceeded acceptable values, threatening several potential negative outcomes. These could include overheating, energy loss, protective fault device malfunction, poor grounding and catastrophic failure during power surges. Test results can be used to identify changes caused by fatigue, corrosion, vibration, temperature or other conditions that may occur at the site.
