12.2 Special Case: Earth Leakage Resistance (R
EINS
)
This measurement is performed in order to determine
electrostatic discharge capacity for floor coverings in accordance
with EN 1081.
Select the Measuring Function
Set Parameters
* Freely adjustable voltage, see section 5.7
Connection and set-up
Ð Rub the floor covering at the point at which measurement is to
be performed with a dry cloth.
Ð Place the floor probe 1081onto the point of measurement and
load it with a minimum weight of 300 N (30 kg).
Ð Establish a conductive connection between the measuring
electrode and the test probe and connect the measuring
adapter (2-pole) to an earth contact, e.g. the earthing contact
at a mains outlet or a central heating radiator; Prerequisite:
safe earth connection.
