Description
When it comes to electrical safety and testing, having a reliable Ground Resistance Tester is critical. In Bangladesh, electricians, engineers, and professionals depend on accurate tools for efficient power distribution and safety assurance. One of the best solutions in the market is the HIOKI FT6380-50, a clamp-on ground resistance tester that ensures fast, precise, and wireless testing. And the best part? It’s only available through Power Tech Electric, the only authorized distributor of HIOKI in Bangladesh.
In this article, we’ll explore what makes the HIOKI FT6380-50 stand out, how it works, why it’s the smart choice for professionals, and how Power Tech is changing the electrical equipment market in Dhaka.
What is a ground resistance tester?
A ground resistance tester is a device used to measure the resistance of grounding systems. Grounding is essential in every electrical setup as it protects equipment and lives from electrical faults. The tester helps ensure that a system’s grounding path can safely carry away unwanted electricity.
Without proper testing, faults in grounding systems could go unnoticed, leading to damage, shock, or even fire.
Why Choose the HIOKI FT6380-50?
No Ground Rod Needed
Unlike older testers, the FT6380-50 doesn’t need any auxiliary grounding rods. You can test grounding resistance without disconnecting wires or setting up additional rods, saving time and effort.
Clamp-On Testing – Fast and Easy
The HIOKI FT6380-50 uses a compact clamp to easily grip grounding conductors. The low-profile clamp design fits even in tight spaces, making it a favorite for field engineers.
Accurate and Reliable
It measures from 0.20 Ω up to 1600 Ω, with high accuracy and fast response. Its built-in zero suppression and ten measurement ranges ensure professional-grade accuracy every time.
Main Features of the HIOKI FT6380-50
Let’s look at the key benefits that make the FT6380-50 ideal for professionals in Bangladesh.
1. Wireless Data Transfer
Pair the tester with the GENNECT Cross app (via optional Wireless Adapter Z3210) to instantly send your readings to a smartphone or computer. You can export data to Excel for easy reporting and analysis.
2. Measure Earth Resistance in Multi-Grounded Systems
Ideal for complex setups with multiple grounding points. More grounding poles mean more accurate readings. Perfect for modern construction and industrial facilities in Dhaka.
3. High Sensitivity and Wide Range
- Detects leak currents as low as 0.01 mA
- Measures load currents up to 60 A
- Supports crest factor up to 5.0
- True RMS for accurate AC current reading
4. Memory and Alarm Functions
- Store up to 2000 readings
- Set thresholds for alarms – a beep will alert you if values exceed safety limits
5. Rugged and Durable
- Dust and splash protection (IP40 rating)
- Long battery life – up to 40 hours of continuous use
- Lightweight at just 620 grams, perfect for mobile technicians
How Does It Work?
The FT6380-50 uses two internal cores:
- One injects voltage into the circuit
- The other measures the resulting current
By analyzing the voltage and current, the tester calculates the total loop resistance. This method is fast and non-intrusive, which is why it’s widely used in multi-grounded systems.
Applications of HIOKI FT6380-50
Here’s where this tool really shines:
- Telecom grounding systems
- Electric utility substations
- Industrial plants and factories
- Solar power systems
- Construction sites in Dhaka
Whether you’re an electrical consultant, safety inspector, or contractor – this tester helps you work smarter and safer.
