Electrical Continuity Testing
Increase site safety and reduce liability by utilizing Tanknology's Continuity Testing. Designed to test the electrical continuity between the nozzle and the dispenser, Continuity Testing can be one of the most important actions an owner can take to eliminate dangerous static electrical charges from dispensing equipment.

Dispensing equipment that is improperly installed or compromised will not have an electrical path to discharge static electricity. Tanknology's Continuity Testing ensures the presence of a conductive path between the nozzle and the dispenser which will dissipate the static electrical charges that occur when refueling. Testing is performed per recommended practices established by the Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) in 2002.

Trust Tanknology to evaluate the electrical continuity of:
Nozzles
Whip Hoses
Fueling Hoses
Breakaways
Swivels
Other hanging hardware

The Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) recommends that testing be conducted as part of a scheduled maintenance program, after a drive-off, or when installing or replacing dispenser equipment. Continuity Testing is a cost effective addition to your stage II, Cathodic protection, line and leak detector testing program.
