Data record instr.ground-resistance-tester.fall-of-potential

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

In the fall-of-potential (three-pole) method the instrument passes current between the electrode under test and an outer auxiliary stake, senses the voltage between the electrode and an inner stake driven along the same line, and displays the electrode's resistance to ground from the two.
