    PAT Testers question.

    If you were testing a Class 2 (double insulated) appliance and line and neutral were reversed in the plug, would you swap them round? If so, why? Just to avoid any possible argument with the customer?

Several of my clients have contacted me to ask if I had changed my Company name or was no longer in business, as they had been led to believe this was the case. Subsequently they...

    voltage testers - which one should I get?

    Afternoon all I'm stuck between voltage testers and I would appreciate your thought on which one to go for... Megger TPT210 or Fluke T5-1000 The meggar is half the price of the fluke but I don't know if that means anything in terms of quality and value for money. Thanks for your comments BB
