I use a Megger MFT 1720; there are three options for testing earth loop impedance: 2Hi, 2Lo, 3Lo. Can anyone explain the different variants as I get different readings depending which option I choose Thanks

Exactly, can’t move existing even if I can pull cables back

Could you provide a link to these? Can see them in searches I’m doing. Thanks
