Ground Resistance Tester Model 6471
Observe the following minimum distances between the two clamps in order to
avoid direct electromagnetic inuences between the transmitting clamp and the
receiving clamp:

NOTE: In the AUTO mode, the measurement frequency is 1611Hz. To make
an earth measurement that is free of inductive effects, you must change to
MANUAL mode and choose a lower measurement frequency (see §6.2).
