Case Studies

Case Study 1 – Electrical Utility Inspection (California, USA)
A major utility operator used GAO Tek ground resistance testers provided by ElectricalTestTek to audit substation earthing networks. Test results guided corrective grounding enhancements, improving system safety and reducing risk of equipment damage.

Case Study 2 – Industrial Plant Ground Audit (Michigan, USA)
A manufacturing plant scheduled periodic testing with our ground testers. Faulty grounding paths were identified early and corrected, preventing machine ground faults and ensuring uninterrupted production downtime.

Case Study 3 – Telecom Tower Ground System Evaluation (Quebec, Canada)
A Canadian telecom provider equipped their field crews with GAO Tek clamp-based ground resistance testers sourced through ElectricalTestTek. This enabled rapid, non-intrusive ground checks at tower sites, improving safety and compliance across multiple locations.
