Hi Ed:

Sorry but a Fluke model 7 won't cut it for measuring ground 
resistances. You need a "Megger"  Although they don't put out
50,000 volts, they do run 500 to 1K volts.

Now you just take and put each of the leads on some unsuspecting
fellow student's pants pocket .... Oh no just forget I said that.

73 es have fun
