What's the purpose of Low Resistance testing?

Low resistance testing can be used as:

• A quality control measure at the time a piece of electrical equipment is produced

• An installation requirement to help ensure specifications are met and to verify proper hookup
• A periodic preventive maintenance task
• A troubleshooting tool
