Easy way to measure earthing and soil
The Sonel MRU-12 earth resistance and soil resistivity meter is a simple meter that allows you to measure grounding by the use of the technical method (3-pole and 4-wire) and soil resistivity by Wenner and Schlumberger method. The instrument is easy to handle, resistive to interference, and highly accurate.
MRU-12 is a basic device that allows for checking the quality of the grounding system on the basis of the received measurement result. Its ergonomic shape, durable and firm housing, as well as big and clear display make this instrument ideal to use both in the field and most working environments.
The device is simple to operate and intuitive. It is the best choice for electrical installations contractors, technicians, and professionals dealing with grounding measurements.
Sonel MeasureEffect™
The meter is a part of the Sonel MeasureEffect™ platform. It is a comprehensive system that enables you to take measurements, store and manage data, and provides multi-level control of your instruments.
