INSULATION EARTH TESTER
Be released from test lead problems!
Three testing functions in a palm sized tester
- Possible to measure line voltage up to 440 V
- Small test current of 2 mA or less prevents unintentional RCD trip. (on EARTH function)
- Live circuit warning (on INSULATION and EARTH functions)
- Comparator function with audible warning
- Setting customization via app
- Enable/disable unnecessary functions or ranges.
Any desired max displayed value and threshold value for comparator are selectable. - Replaceable 4-type of metal tips are available.
Standard, long, and molded metal tips (accessories)
L-shaped probe useful in high place measurement (optional accessory) - Bluetooth® communication
Save the measured values in tablets or smartphones.

Product Overview
Insulation resistance measurement

- 4 ranges (50/125/250/500 V)
- Warning with red LCD backlight for high voltage 500 V range
- Auto-discharge function
Charged voltages are automatically discharged after measurement. - Live circuit warning
Safety design-Audible warning and red LCD backlight indicate the measured voltage is higher than the reference value, and no measurement is performable. - Comparator function
Audible warning and red LCD backlight indicate the measured voltage drops below the reference value.
(Reference value is changeable via special app.)
| Rated voltage | 50 V | 125 V | 250 V | 500 V |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reference value | 0.100 MΩ | 0.100 MΩ | 0.200 MΩ | 0.400 MΩ |
Earth resistance measurement

- 200/2000 Ω Auto-ranging
- Small test current of 2 mA or less prevents unintentional RCD trip
- Live circuit warning
Audible warning and red LCD backlight indicate that the measured voltage is 30 V or higher; during this time, no measurement can be performed. - Comparator function
Audible warning and red LCD backlight indicate that the measured voltage is higher than the reference value.
(Reference value is changeable via special app.)
*Helpful method when auxiliary earth electrodes aren't able to be driven into the ground.
This is a simplified earth resistance tester and uses the existing earth systems (with a sufficiently low earth resistance) such as buried metal pipes like main water pipe, common earth for commercial power supply and a lightning electrode on buildings and performs measurements based on the 2-pole measurement method.

Earth resistance measurement of load

Earth resistance measurement of outlet
Voltage measurement
- Measurable up to 440 V max.
- True RMS measurement even on distorted waveforms
- AC/DC auto-detection
Illuminance sensor installed. Facilitates work in dimly lit areas.

- LED light and LCD backlight with automatic on/off function
- Glow-in-the-dark switches

Customize certain product's settings through the app (for KEW 6041BT only)
Change of Comparator function
(for Insulation and Earth resistance)
Possible to turn ON/OFF comparator function or change threshold value for warning.
Quick reset of settings is possible.
Suddenly need to use any of the disabled feature, press the power switch with holding down the SELECT switch and restart it. This temporarily restores settings to the default. Default Reset is possible without using the app.
*This is a temporary setting. To reset settings changed via the app and completely initialized (restore to factory default setting), extra operations are required.
Change of Maximum measurement display value
Maximum display value of voltage, insulation and earth resistance can be set to the desired value.

E.g.: Max resistance value on 250 V range for insulation resistance measurement is changed to 10 MΩ.
Enable/Disable Setting Function
Prevent unintentional output on insulation ranges! Disable unnecessary features!

E.g.: Voltage measurement and 50 V and 500 V are disabled.
*Even when the voltage function is turned off, voltage can be measured while the insulation and earth resistance functions are in stand-by mode.
