    Noob looking for MFT and other bits of test equipment

    Hi. I'm looking to buy My First Multifunction Tester, a voltage indicator and a proving unit. Do you have any advice or links to special offers, bundles, etc? I'll be doing domestic EICRs, fault finding and remedial work (all domestic). TIA :) Edit: My budget is £800 all in

    Best MFT for EV charge point testing

    This may have been asked before but what is the best all round MFT that also does EV charge point testing? I am looking at the Megger 1741+ but also believe the Metrel testers are also good?

    New MFT and testing EV Chargers, spds etc

    Need to look at a new MFT in due course as I currently have a kt64dl which whilst it works fine, is a doddle to use I have to use a chunky rolec charge check for testing EV Chargers. I see the new Metrel 3152 has a bolt on to test the chargers. Not sure if the EV testing part works fully with...

    Repeatability of Zs measurements

    Recently I got a DL9118 multi-function tester and one of its capabilities is, of course, measuring Zs. But I wondered how it worked in terms of compensating for test lead impedance (no mention in the manual) and after inquiring it was confirmed it has factory cal for the supplied leads. Next...

    Packaging MFT for transit to Calibration Centre

    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?

    18th Edition tester or not?

    I’m looking to get registered with the compétant persons scheme. I’m looking at testers and wondering if it’s worth the extra money to get a tester that tests b type RCDs. would the scheme pénalise me for not having an 18th fully compliant tester? wondering on what people’s views are.

    IR with Di-Log MFT

    Hi all, Trainee spark here so I expect this is a 'user error' issue. I bought a Di-Log MFT a few months ago when I started workign as a mate/apprentice. I was using it today to test a new board I'd put in. All went well until I wanted to get my IR's @ 500v - the screen just turns red and the...

    New MFT Required....but which one?

    So the screen on my trusty MFT1552 has died....probably time to replace it anyway...Looking at the new Megger MFT17xx series, but interested to hear any thoughts on alternatives! Or even better.....someone telling me that their 1552 did this, and it was a cheap fix! Unlikely though I guess! Cheers

    What MFT?

    Hi team. I'm coming up to the end of my level 3 2365, and the plan is to go out and work with some local electricians doing domestic, industrial, in fact a bit of everything. Living out in the sticks I don't think there is another way. But rather than borrowing kit and just using it, I want to...

    Using our MFT on 500v IR as a damp test probe?

    OK, Stop laughing at the back! SO, I'm house hunting and, ignoring the number of beautifully decorated houses with rubbish electrics - I also want to be aware of any damp issues. This led me to try using the trusty Megger with sharp probes to test for damp. This appears to work, or at-least is...
