Although I have not tested the 'KEWTECH KEWCHECK 103 MAINS WIRING TESTER Ii have tested a variety of similar testers including an earlier version of the Kewtech tester and the similar Martindale tester. In my experience they all have a fundamental...
When I was an industrial spark I used to have a danger board issued by the firm, a heavy duty plastic type board which gave name and trade for locking off switches etc. Where do you get yours from? Could someone provide details of a supplier? I just want one for my lock off kit
