The DET14C features an intuitive interface:

• Drejeskive: Used to select measurement modes (e.g., Ω for resistance, A for current) and power the unit ON/OFF.
• LCD-skærm: Shows measurement readings, battery status, and other indicators.
• HOLD knap: Fryser den aktuelle aflæsning på displayet.
• Function (Fn) Button: Activates secondary functions or settings.
• Navigationsknapper: Used for navigating menus and confirming selections (e.g., OK button).

3.2 Udførelse af en måling

To perform an earth/ground resistance measurement:

1. Ensure the unit is powered ON by rotating the dial to the desired measurement mode (Ω).
2. Åbn clamp kæberne ved at trykke på håndtaget.
3. Placer clamp around the earth conductor or ground loop to be measured, ensuring the jaws close completely and smoothly. The flat core ends are designed for optimal contact.
4. The meter will automatically begin measuring. The resistance value will be displayed on the LCD.
5. If operating in an electrically noisy environment, activate the Noise Filter Function as per the detailed instructions in the full user manual to ensure stable readings.
6. To save a reading, use the data storage function. Readings are time and date stamped for easy record-keeping.

The DET14C can measure ground resistance within a range of 0.05 Ω to 1500 Ω, with varying accuracy across sub-ranges:

• 0.05 Ω - 0.99 Ω
• 1.00 Ω - 9.99 Ω
• 10.0 Ω - 99.9 Ω
• 100.0 Ω - 199.9 Ω
• 200 Ω - 400 Ω
• 400 Ω - 600 Ω
• 600 Ω - 1200 Ω
• 1200 Ω - 1500 Ω

4. Vedligeholdelse

4.1 Rengøring

To maintain accuracy and prolong the life of your DET14C, regularly clean the unit, especially the clamp jaws and flat core ends. Use a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth may be used, but ensure no moisture enters the device. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

4.2 Udskiftning af batteri

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the batteries promptly to ensure continued accurate operation. Refer to Section 2.2 for battery installation instructions.

4.3 Opbevaring

When not in use, store the Megger DET14C in its protective carrying case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for extended periods, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.

5. Fejlfinding

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Megger DET14C. For more detailed troubleshooting, refer to the comprehensive user manual.

Almindelige problemer:

• Ingen strøm: Kontroller batteriinstallationen, og sørg for, at batterierne ikke er afladede.
• Upræcise læsninger: Sørg for, at clamp jaws are fully closed and clean. Verify the conductor is properly positioned within the clamp. Activate the noise filter function if operating in an electrically noisy environment.
• Skærmen reagerer ikke: Try turning the unit off and on again. If the issue persists, replace batteries.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, contact Megger customer support or a qualified service technician.
