M. C. Miller is your one-stop shop for all of your soil resistivity testing needs. Soil resistivity testing is covered by the ASTM Standard Method designated as ASTM G57-78 and M. C. Miller has conveniently put a package of equipment together that allows field personnel to collect soil resistivity data in accordance with the ASTM Standard.

In addition to offering items on an individual basis, such as electrodes (pins), test leads and soil boxes, an equipment package can be purchased which is known as the Soil Resistivity Test Kit (Cat #15622).

The final item that is required for soil resistivity testing, in addition to the items that comprise the Test Kit, is a resistance meter. M. C. Miller has you covered in this regard as well with its state-of-the-art analog resistance meter, the Miller 400A (Cat. #44500) and, coming soon, the Miller 400D digital resistance meter. These are state-of-art resistance meters that when combined with the Test Kit equipment will make soil resistivity testing a breeze. M. C. Miller’s Test Kit equipment can also be used with other manufacturer’s resistance meters, such as the Nilsson 400 Resistance Meter, for example, or with multi-meters in conjunction with a power source.

For accurate soil resistivity determination, it is important that the resistance meter being used with the Kit be properly calibrated. Please see Resistance Meter Calibration Checking for a discussion on this topic.
