Hi all
My Fluke tester failed on one test today while having it's annual calibration, the continuity resistance test current.
Test Current - applied Value 205.0mA
Measured Value 218.0mA
Specification+- 10mA
So a fail from the calibration company because it was 13mA. However I read ( on Line )...
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?
Hi all, does anyone happen to have a blank pdf for this checkbox, to keep a log of your calibration checks or have a link to where I can get a copy? Much appreciated.
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.
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...
Morning all.
My Kewtech is going to need to be calibrated next month.
Does anyone know anyone in Fife who can help? Really can't afford to have it away for long.
Had a look online but apparently Google isn't my friend!
Thanks
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...
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...
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...
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...
Anyone sent Thier meter(s) to Calibration Centre in Stafford via the provided UPS service they offer?
How would you advise to pack the MFT? (aside from well), send in original hardbox inside a cardboard box/ wrapped in rubble sack?
Hi everyone,
I have been asked by a customer to resurrect some of their very old testing equipment .
Long story short , I have managed to get an old Ferranti HV insulation tester back up and running but , I know for a fact that the next thing he is going to ask me is , "can someone calibrate 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...
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...
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...
Used Kewtech KT63 MFT, with leads, hard case, instructions, and calibration certificate dated 12/03/2019 (i.e. last week). Purchased October 2014, used until about September last year.
Great little tester, simple, small and lightweight (will not give you neck-ache!). Only takes 4x AA batteries...
