    Calibration Regulations

    Hi all....for fixed wiring testing, does the test equipment (Fluke and Megger in this case) have to have a calibration certificate from an independant organization. i.e we cant calibrate it and certify it ourselves?

    Torque Screwdriver Calibration Company?

    Anyone recommend a decent company for torque screwdriver calibration that won't break the bank? Some companies seem to be pretty close to the price of a new one which would start to get expensive over the years.

    Checking Calibration of factory incomer electricity meter

    I've been asked to confirm that our site electricity meter is accurate! Easy on a small site, but 6 cable feed,and a few thousand amps, leaves me short on ideas. To confirm, this is the meter that records electricity usage for our bill. It's a CT style. The meter doesn't give a live power read...

    Martindale et4000 high readings, calibration?

    Hi all I've just purchased the martindale tester second hand from ebay. In comparison with my metrel mi3002 and ht macrotouch, it is giving almost twice the readings. In my mind, this is a faulty unit, as calibrating will only check the tolerance, and if the readings are this far out, it...

    Calibration - What actually goes on?

    Stupid thread time. We hear a lot about getting meters calibrated and checked regularly but not a lot of detail about what is actually done. Is it just testing against preset levels? If a level is off (beyond tolerance), how exactly is it corrected? Would love a point to point on exactly what...

    Is my calibration showing my tester is faulty?

    Hi lads, I have a Megger 1552. I didn't really use it in the last couple of years. I was planning to get more into testing again, so sent it for calibration. Unfortunately, it failed. I was told it requires a new side socket where the test leads plug into the tester. As the tester is old...

    Anybody recommend good calibration services?

    I don't know if it's just me but the prices of getting testers calibrated has seemed to have gone through the roof. I appreciate the kit isn't cheap, I got a quote for some myself a few years back, but when the guys drop in to do it in the wholesalers I've also seen how long it takes. I've just...

    Offered a 2nd hand 1730 for 475, no calibration - Worth it?

    As above, images have the unit with minor wear and tear and shows leads & case. Does state it requires calibration - would this be worth the price? I've got no intention on going out doing jobs but I figure I'll be using something at College and this gives me time to learn the unit and it's...

    Megger 1730 calibrate or not before sale?

    I have an MFT1730 which I will be selling (have upgraded) and would value the groups opinion. The calibration certificate has expired so is it worth me spending the money to have it recalibrated before I sell it? What would you all pay for a meter that is in excellent condition calibrated v’s...

    CEF offering calibration for £35 + VAT.

    My title looks like an advert! It was time for my MFT to be calibrated so I started ringing around. Wilts (Rexel) are my choice for buying all my gear although they are usually expensive for calibration, as they were this time £75+VAT. I rang CEF next and they were £35+VAT. I asked why they...
