Ground (earth) integrity
Listed below are two methods for checking the ground (earth) integrity,
“Ground continuity test” and “Impedance of protective earth connection”.
These tests determine whether the device’s exposed metal and power
inlet’s earth (ground) connection has a power ground fault condition.
Perform the test in accordance with your local regulations.
