Chauvin Arnoux P01295265 Spool with 50 m test lead blue content_copy

This product is a measurement cable from the brand Chauvin Arnoux, specifically designed as accessory for earth resistance measuring instruments. It is a 50 m long measurement cable in blue colour, wound on a reel and equipped with a handle to facilitate transport and handling. The cable is used for measuring earth resistance and specific earth resistances, and thus forms an integral part of measurement systems in the field of electrical safety and ground resistance measurement.

Applications

The measurement cable is used in professional environments, particularly for testing earthing systems in industry, commerce, and construction. It is suitable for measurements using the 3-wire or 4-wire method, with the length of 50 m being sufficient for many standard applications. The blue colour corresponds to the colour coding of the connection terminals on Chauvin Arnoux measuring instruments, preventing connection errors and simplifying the assignment of cables to the respective measurement points.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The cable is mounted on a reel equipped with a handle to ensure safe and convenient handling during installation. The handle can be removed to optimise storage space. The use of a reel enables proper winding and prevents tangling or damage to the cable. The blue colour is standard for certain measurement cables in earthing systems, ensuring clear assignment to connection points on the measuring instruments.

Technology Explained Simply

The measurement cable is part of a complete earth resistance measurement system, consisting of several components including earth electrodes, measurement cables of different lengths and colours, and adapters. The 50 m long cable provides sufficient reach for most measurement tasks in the field of earthing. The use of banana plugs (4 mm Ø) ensures universal compatibility with Chauvin Arnoux measuring instruments, regardless of the connector type used. The colour coding of the cables (here blue) matches the connection colours of the devices, supporting correct assignment and preventing incorrect connections.

Compatibility and Accessories

The accessory is compatible with all earth resistance measuring instruments from Chauvin Arnoux, regardless of the connector type, as it is equipped with adapters for 4 mm banana plugs. It can be combined with additional components such as earth electrodes (T-shaped), other measurement cables (e.g. 150 m red) or adapters for cable lugs to create comprehensive measurement systems for various applications. The use of adapters allows flexible adaptation to different measuring instruments and connection types.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply winding the cable onto the reel, with the handle aiding handling. The cable is connected to the appropriate connection points on the measuring instruments, with the colour coding (blue) facilitating assignment. The reel can be held during installation to unwind the cable in a controlled manner. After measurement, the cable is rewound onto the reel, and the handle can be removed to optimise storage space.

Advantages in Operation

Using a cable wound on a reel offers the advantage of orderly and damage-free storage. The handle facilitates transport and handling on site. The colour coding reduces the error rate when connecting cables to measuring instruments. The length of 50 m is sufficient for many standard applications and allows flexible use in various environments. Compatibility with all Chauvin Arnoux measuring instruments via 4 mm banana plug adapters ensures universal usability.
