Hi Guys

I don't normally do PAt testing but I've been asked to FAT test some 3 phase lab machinery.

I'm aware that I'm going to need to do visual and earth continuity checks from the isolator to exposed metal parts of the machines but are there any other tests I can perform using my insulation/continuity tester.
I'm concerned about damaging the equiptment using an insulation test voltage.

There is a single phase PAT tester onsite. Should I use this for any tests?

As per above from Dave. Swap to a 63A outlet and problem goes away. What gets plugged into it is not part of an inspection.
