Finshed and install in an unoccupied building today and went to do the testing and my meter decides to play up.
I always like to do my RCD test first (nothnig like the sound of the click to know it's working) but upon the auto teest at 30ma it stops at x1. another issues is the RCD would trip...
Just created a quick tutorial for upgrading the firmware on a Metrel MFT so that it has the AMD3 figures installed. There'll be no awards for production quality of the video, but hopefully it will get you sorted.
Also, I have a serial-USB adapter to do this with (obviously) - if you don't want...

Hello all..
I have been wondering what this message means for sometime, its now happened once too often and I have at last got around to taking a picture which I am posting to you guys!
I have a Metrel EasiPLUS MI 3000.
This problem occurs perhaps once in every 20 homes. When trying to take a...

Hi fellas, i have ended up with a Metrel EasiPLUS MI3000,and have had a small play with it,now it has a set of new re-chargeables fitted.
It seems to function fine,will need a calibration if it's a keeper...does not seem as intuitively simple,as the Megger 1700 series,but not had a play with...
Hi all I'm an industrial sparky on maintenance doing my eal initial verification exam tomorrow was just wondering when doing ZE at the origin, do you do Neutral L1,L2,L3 and then Earth L1,L2,L3 and N+E ? Or is there between phases too? And is this the same for The PFC?
Hi All,
We have recently purchased a Metrel 3101At euro test pro kit and so far so good we are very happy with the test unit, however we are unable to find a way of switching on a buzzer in the continuity test setting. Does anyone know if the tester has this option and if so how to switch it on...
Hi everyone, I have a metrel instaltest that, when testing single phase voltage always returns a reading of 540 V on L1 L2 L3. This suggests an internal fault that it automatically thinks it's testing three phase somehow. Has anyone else experienced similar faults with Metrel gear? Thanks

As always everything has happened at once, my NICEIC inspection date has finally come through after being messed around for months and then my MFT has blown up. My spare MFT has no calibration cert so i have bitten the bullet and been and purchased a new MFT..
A Metrel MI 3125...
Ok, so twice this week my MFT has reported no earth - this is obviously due to a poor connection to the connector - so has anyone had the same? Has anyone taken theirs apart?
I'd rather not send it to Metrel and not have it for a week minimum!
Thanks
Hello folks, As per title, I have a brand new portable PAT tester for sale. I purchased this from a UK dealer back in October but never got to use it and never will as I won't be providing PAT testing after all. It comes in original box and includes all standard accessories and comes with the...
Does anyone know where you can purchase a Metrel charger for the 3002 model. Some doughnut on site decided to throw mine away.
I have seen one online but I'm not too sure it's a metrel version and I am a little ---- about using third party products on just about anything I own.
Hi Guys
Metrel uses a 4 pole plug/socket for all their test leads on MFTs. Anyone know who manufactures them. The test lead socket/plugs on my 10 year old Easitest are knackered but Metrel think it unlikely that they still stock the socket for that model. Apart from that it works perfectly and...
