OverviewThe MOM3 is a handheld 300 A micro-ohmmeter for checking and measuring contact resistances in high-voltage circuit breakers, disconnecting switches (isolators) and busbar joints. It uses ultracapacitor energy storage to generate high output current for accurate low-resistance measurements and provides Wi‑Fi and USB‑C connectivity for on-site data handling.
Key features- High test current: up to 300 A for accurate measurement of very low resistances.
- Battery powered: rechargeable battery for mobile field testing; battery replacement by authorized service centers.
- Lightweight: approximately 1.1 kg for easy transport and one-person operation.
- Auto-ranging: automatic selection from 1 μΩ to 3000 mΩ.
- Ultracapacitor energy storage: low internal resistance enabling high discharge current.
- Connectivity: Wi‑Fi for wireless data transfer to Megger Egil200 and USB‑C for direct PC connection.
- Designed for use in high-disturbance, high-voltage on-site environments.
Included technology / capabilities- Ultracapacitor technology: stores and quickly discharges large energy to produce high output currents compared with standard capacitors.
- Low internal resistance of the ultracapacitor improves energy delivery and measurement stability.
- Versatile for field use on various high-current contacts and busbar joints.
Interpreting test resultsReadings are provided in micro-ohm (μΩ) and milli-ohm (mΩ) ranges. Accurate interpretation depends on consistent test setup: clean contact surfaces, correct contact pressure, stable test current and awareness of temperature effects. The device auto-ranging selects the most appropriate scale to support precise readings.
Common issues — indicators — recommended actionsLoose connections — Higher than expected resistance readings — Tighten and retest
Corrosion — Gradually increasing resistance over time — Inspect and clean contacts
Wear and tear — Fluctuating resistance, especially under load — Replace or repair components
Inconsistent results — Varying readings between tests in similar conditions — Check equipment calibration and repeat measurements
Documents availableDatasheet, user guide and application notes (including comparison and cable-setup guidance) are available for detailed specifications, setup and measurement examples.
