Appendix B gives two test methods: impedance voltage drop method and current clamp method. There is no dedicated ground impedance measuring instrument on the market. The specification GB / T16895.23-2012 / IEC60364-6:2006 Low Voltage Electrical Installation Part 6: Appendix B only gives two test methods: impedance voltage drop method and current clamp method, which are difficult to apply at the construction site.
