    Why are proving units so expensive?

    Good afternoon all, my query is about proving units. Several firms make them but they all seem quite expensive is it because not many are sold as an Electronics engineer I can't see the components costing a lot or is there some other reason.

    Using a proving unit.

    When isolating can't you just prove that your voltage indicator is working by connecting it to the supply terminals at the CCU, rather than buying a proving unit that's going to get left at someones house?
