1.1 Safety instructions
For your own safety and to get the maximum benefit
from your instrument, please ensure that you read
and understand the following safety instructions and
warnings before using the instrument.
Read and comply with the following
instructions.
Always comply with local safety
regulations.
Important
Warning
Connecting – before test
1.
Before measuring resistance in circuit breakers
or disconnecting switches (isolators), always
check to see that the object being tested is
closed and grounded at both sides.
2.
Always connect the protective ground on
MOM2 before making any other connections.
3.
Always connect the test cables to MOM2 before connecting them to the test object.
4.
Never connect MOM2 to live circuits.
During test
1.
The rising current waveforms produced by the
instrument may induce enough current into
the secondary of a current transformer (CT)
circuit to actuate a protective relay.
If there is a CT in the current circuit, the protective relay equipment that is connected to it
must be blocked to prevent actuation.
After completing the measurements, you can
follow the normal procedures that are used to
demagnetize current transformer cores after
DC has passed through their current transformer.
2.
Never open a circuit breaker while MOM2 is
connected to it.
3.
Connection points for current cables can become hot during current generation.
4.
High current on output terminals.
Disconnecting – after test
1.
First, disconnect all test cables from the test
object and then disconnect them from MOM2.
Last, disconnect the protective ground from
MOM2.
Important
1.
The instrument is intended for use in industrial
environment. It generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with these instructions
it may cause interference to other devices
in the vicinity. If this equipment does cause
interference with other devices, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following
measures:
▪
Reorient or relocate the receiving device.
▪ Increase the separation between the equipments.
▪ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the other device(s) is
connected.
▪ Consult the manufacturer or field service
technician for help.
2.
Never leave the MOM2 unattended while it is
turned on.
3.
Do not use any accessories that are not intended for use together with the instrument.
4.
It is not possible to use the MOM2 for testing
during battery charging.
5.
Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use
liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
6.
Do not attempt to service the instrument yourself. If you attempt to service the instrument
yourself the warranty is no longer valid. Refer
all servicing to Megger authorized personnel.
7.
If you need to return the instrument, please
use either the original crate or one of equivalent strength.

2 INTRODUCTION

Introduction
The MOM2 is designed to measure the resistance of
circuit breaker contacts, bus-bar joints, contact elements in bus-bars and other high-current links.
When contact resistance rises because of oxidation,
loosened or improperly tightened threaded joints,
temperatures rise abnormally at the points of contact.
This abnormal heating reduces conductivity thereby
accelerating the rise in temperature — and this often
leads to serious trouble.
The MOM2 micro-ohmmeter can be used to detect
such problems early so that they can be remedied
long before trouble starts. Checking contact resistance
at regular intervals provides a clear indication of the
state of your system.
2.1 Basic technical
description
The output current is delivered from a supercapacitor
which is charged from the built-in rechargeable batteries.
Kelvin test
The MOM2 uses Kelvin probes or clamps for the
measurement. A Kelvin test uses four wires and measures continuity resistances ensuring all contact and
lead resistances are compensated for, which allows a
much greater accuracy in measurements. Each Kelvin
probe assembly has two probe tips. When contacting
the test object it will be contacted with two plus two
probe tips. One pair is for the current generated. The
other pair will measure the very small voltage present.
Principle for the 4 wire Kelvin test.

2 INTRODUCTION
2.2 DualGround – Both
sides grounded
With MOM2 it is possible to make measurements
according to the DualGround™ method. The most important advantage is improved safety but the method
is also easier and saves time. The number of tasks is
reduced when the ground cable does not need to be
disconnected and reconnected. Permission related
work that may include paper work could many times
be avoided. However, the local safety regulations shall
always be followed.
Using the DualGround method might cause a small
measurement error cause by the current running
through the ground loop. The error value depends on
the relation between the two parallel circuits.
Example: If the test object is 50 µ and ground loop
is 10 m the error will be 0.5%
Two 10 m, 95 mm
2
grounding cables has a resistance
of around 3.6 m. Transitional resistance in connections and clamps to be added.
With both sides grounded the induced current will not pass
through the test instrument.
