Earth Leakage Clamp

[Vitesse]

Looking for a decent earth leakage clamp. My last one (Megger) died a few months back and was knocking on a bit but was deemed to be decent when I bought it and it served me well.

I haven't had a need for one recently but had a job today where I really missed it. It was never a bit of kit that I used a lot but now not having one I realise I should have replaced it sooner.

The forum sponsors have a lot of choice with a massive difference in price. Is it a case of you pay for what you get? Buy cheap and it is cheap and doesn't have a decent range of mA and will drop dead sooner than later?

Recommendations please as I need to order one today Friday so I have it for Tuesday.

Oh it's for domestic only.

Thanks

The di-log one that TLC sell is a good bit of kit for the money 1mA resolution, I think mine was £90. It's not often I use it but invaluable when I do need it.

I've got the Metrel MD9272:

Not cheap but worth the outlay when my old cheap one went missing!

I got the Dilog, really useful piece of kit.

Thanks for the offer I need one for Monday unfortunately.

I think the Dilog looks like a winner, not too expensive plus I can drive over on Monday and pick it up before I go to the job. Thanks for all the suggestions, especially Sam and amlu for their recommendation of it and where to buy.

My Dilog became uncalibratable after 14 months from new. It was not used greatly and was well looked after. Now have Fluke 360 which feels solid and reliable. Won't buy cheap again.

There is a post about the ELCMs in the review section of tools and products. Wasn't just me moaning about the Dilog. Think it was happy hippy who had problems too.
