Hello
Can I please have your opinions on cheap clamp meters ie Philex 83007R or similar. What do you think is the most reliable under say £50 , or should I wait and save. Only padding about on domestic work.
Kindest Regards
David

i have an installation domestic and all tests were fine and the rcd never tripped at all. now th efamily have moved back in and we get random tripping mainly at night.
the only 2 appliances that were plugged in before the move were fridge and kettle. after moving in they have their...
Was at a relative's house (big and old) and they said they sometimes flicked a particular light switch and it caused the CU to trip. Said i would take a quick look!
It turns out it was a split load board about 6 years old with one rcd. All the light circuits were on the non rcd side and when...

Hi all
I have been trawling through ebay looking for test kit etc One item that I see a lot are clamp meters Please forgive my ignorance but how would you use these & why ?
I went to a house last week where the live cable on the supply side of a spur (old colours, red) was coloured black as it had been burnt by what looked to be arcing due to loose connection. So i changed the old spur for a new one, as the old spur was all burnt and discoloured. Now the customer...
First post for some time, anyway, I am looking around for a earth leakage clamp tester, i was thinking about the Di Log DL6507, has anyone used them before, if so what are they like, finally what are you guys using.
Thanks
Hi, has anyone any advice on buying a earth leakage clamp meter.:confused:
I have been looking around and was thinking of a Kewtech KEW 2434 which at £220 is about the most I would want to spend.
Many thanks Chris.
I've been looking at getting a clamp meter for a while but I'd like one that does earth leakage also, there isn't many about and the ones I have found are stupid money for the rare time they will get used, megger ones are about £350, I can't justify spending anywhere near this...
Anyone...
Hi all
Been racking my brains on bonding, got the niceic man coming round next week and want to make sure its right. There was nothing left of the main earth from a tns supply it was all rotten, so the house had no bonding !
I have used 16mm as the new main bonding and 10mm for the gas and...
Hi all,
Needing some advice - I have Napit coming out to asses me on friday but the work that I want to show to them, the incoming TN-S supply has a bonding clamp for its earth connection.
Looking at the Niceic books they say to put the supply on TT or get the board out. Bit late for the...
Had a customer today with no earth, TNS
The part of the clamp which the cable connects to had come away.
Phoned EDF finally got to speak to someone who then transferred me to a recorded message that said...
"I'm sorry we are unable to help you at this time please phone back at a later date"...
hi guys
can anyone recommend me a decent earth leakage clamp meter. seems every other post nowadays is a 'rcd keeps tripping' one. i'm tooling up for going it alone in the near future, if work in the company i work for doesnt start to pick up, and these seem to be an invaluable tool to have in...
Went to wire up a combi this morning, first floor flat. So first of all I check the earthing and bonding.
Incoming DNO micc to insulated service head, BS951 clamp from copper sheath with no main earthing conductor installed to MET. Earth from CU just goes to MET, as does water bond. I have...
