Soil Resistivity Testing Methods Part 3 The Wenner 4 Probe Test.

Soil Resistivity Testing Methods Wenner 4 Probe Test

Soil Resistivity Testing Methods a popular post. Originally published in 2013 and now updated in 2020.

Wenner 4 Probe test is one of the most common soil resistivity testing methods. It is also part 3 in a series of short posts on Soil Resistivity Testing Methods. Part 1 & Part 3. Together with, the common mistakes encountered. And also, practical advice on how to avoid the Soil Resistivity Testing 10 Common Mistakes.

Soil Resistivity Testing Methods – The Wenner 4 Probe

So soil resistivity testing can be carried out using different methods. Therefore, below describes the Wenner 4 Probe Test Method. Also, its one of the three most popular soil resistivity methods employed, to perform a soil resistivity test:
