    Earth rod testers

    It's pretty rare that I come across TT installations, but recently been looking at investing in a bit of extra kit so thought I'd take a look at earth rod testers. I'm amazed at how expensive they are! Some of them are extortionate! I don't mind spending money on something I'm going to use...

    One for the PAT Testers!

    Hello All, I have recently started a PAT testing company, and from time to time i come across Fixed/wired in appliances. The only way i seem to be able to test them is to use a test block, but should i charge more for this? Seems to be quite common that some PAT companies don't test fixed...

    What exactly is required to calibrate a voltage continuity tester?

    My company does not allow us to use our own voltage/continuity testers. Instead we must use the ones they provide for us. They're pretty cheap but do the job well enough. I have had my testers for just over a year and the label says that I shouldn't use them after that time so I handed them...

    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?

    Beware "Puka" PAT (testers)

    I feel I need to let you know (if interested) that a business client poaching outfit is on the offensive right now. 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
