OPERATORS’ MANUAL FOR TKE-1030 AUTOMATIC EARTH TESTER @& TAE KWANG ELECTRONICS CO.INTRODU re) | 1. GENERAL Model TKE-1030 enables Automatic EARTH RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS by using Voltage Drop System. EARTH RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS became quite easy measured automatically with POWER Switch depressed only. No calibration or zero adjustment procedures are required. Also, it has been designed to minimize battery consumption. 2. FEATURES 1. VOLTAGE DROP SYSTEM enabled the TKE- 1030 to present Automatic EARTH RESISTANCE Measurements with one depression of POWER Switch only. 2. TKE-1030 has been designed handy and very compact arranging function switches in an ideal layout. 3. Simple Measurements are available by shorting P Terminal and C Terminal with attached Cord. 4. Taut Band Meter Movement of Drop-proof and Internal Core Magnet type minimizes outside magnetic influence and assures trouble-free performance. 3. UNPACKING AND INSPECTION Before unpacking, examine the shipping carton for any sign of damage. Unpack and inspect the instrument and accessories for any damage from mechanical shock, water leakage, or other causes. If any damage or missing item is found, consult the local dealer for replacement. Hrellts [ce MT 1. Automatic EARTH TESTER 2. One set of Measuring Cords (5m, 10m, 15m Simple Measuring Cord) 3.
