EN 50116 for ITE specifies the earthing terminal or earthing contact may not
exceed 0.1 ohms when 1.5 times the current capacity of hazardous circuits is
applied, but not more than 25 A (ac or dc) for 60 seconds.
My copy of EN50116 specifies the time as being for the
The obvious question I would have is... why couldn't you test at a higher
current for longer time meeting both requirements? For example 30A for two
minutes. I know the document indicates a maximum current, but does this make
sense?
Works for me. I can't imagine any agency refusing to

Cameron,
The grounding continuity test required by CSA 0.4 is normally intended only
for the initial prototype evaluation, to ensure that the basic design is
within acceptable parameters. It is not usually intended as a production
line test. There may be some exceptions, where non-standard
