    opinions sought on the TIS MFT PRO

    I've had a little go with this tester now and I've decided it's going back to the shop. Heres the thing. It measures continuity between terminal B1 and terminal B4, but insulation resistance is measured between B1 and B3. Can you see what I'm getting at. When I'm doing dead testing I don't...

    Solar inverter showing low dc input ( with pictures ) help please

    Output may come back up as heatwave passes, if you are lucky and your panels are good quality.
