How to use Miner A-200?

Drive four spikes into the ground. Connect wires into the instrument's four terminals. Press TEST button (on). The green current output indicator lamp is lit. The electrical current is transmitted between electrodes. Press TEST button (off) and read the resistance value on display.

Sudden decrease of the value on display is high conductivity (big metal, groundwater, etc.).

Sudden increase of the value on display is low conductivity (or non conductivity) (cave, tunnel, void, ancient wall, etc.).

 

1) Twin probe (detection depth up to 2.5 metres)

 

In the example above, the target is located at Test 3 where the resistivity value on display have suddenly increased.

2) Wenner Array (detection depth up to 10 metres for archaeological applications)


 

                                            

In the example above, the target is located at the intersection point of two testings (horizontal test 3 & vertical test 9) where the resistivity values on display have suddenly increased.
