Be careful you don't rub the scale off when you clean it up!

It is, and it's a much more interesting kind of wind-up than many of the wind-up threads on the forum! Getting to the point, actually where is the point? I can't see the pointer, presumably it's there somewhere?

We'll have to do a 'My First Megger' show and tell. Who else has still got their first Megger or Multimeter?

I think the pointer is looking a bit bent over on the left.

The megger shown was state of the art technology in 1976 when I started my apprenticeship. My first introduction to the megger was "hold this son while we test these cables" and yes you only get caught with that one once.
