Megger MOM2 Micro Ohmmeter

The Megger MOM2 Micro Ohmmeter is a compact, handheld, high-current low-resistance tester specifically engineered for precise measurement of contact resistance in high-voltage and high-current electrical systems. Designed for field portability without compromising performance, the MOM2 delivers powerful test current output in a lightweight, battery-powered instrument ideal for utility, industrial, and substation environments.

Utilizing advanced ultra-capacitor technology, the MOM2 is capable of generating high DC test current (up to approximately 220–240 A depending on configuration) to accurately measure extremely low resistance values from micro-ohms up to milliohms. This ensures reliable assessment of circuit breaker contacts, busbar joints, disconnect switches, grounding connections, weld joints, and other critical conductive connections where low resistance is essential for safe operation.

A key feature of the MOM2 is its DualGround testing capability, which allows both sides of the test object to remain grounded during measurement. This significantly improves operator safety, reduces setup time, and simplifies field testing procedures—especially in high-voltage substations where grounding is mandatory.

Despite its powerful output, the MOM2 weighs approximately 1 kg, making it one of the most portable high-current micro-ohmmeters available. Its rugged housing is designed to withstand demanding field conditions, while the intuitive interface ensures quick operation with minimal training.

The instrument features:

• High-current output for stable and accurate low-resistance measurement

• Auto-ranging measurement capability

• Digital display with clear, easy-to-read results

• Rechargeable battery operation for true field mobility

• Bluetooth communication for data transfer and reporting

• Compliance with relevant IEC and IEEE standards

The Megger MOM2 is an ideal solution for preventive maintenance, commissioning, and troubleshooting applications where precise low-resistance measurement is critical. It combines portability, safety, and high-current performance in a single compact instrument, making it a trusted tool for electrical engineers and maintenance professionals worldwide.
