First MFT advise please

[TomB]

I rate the meggers but could never stretch my budget that far, i ended up going for a Di-Log. Never let me down and has all the functions you need. Friend of mine got one on an auction site for £200 calibrated and including postage

Evening all... Looking for some advice buying my first MFT - got my inspect amd test after Xmas.

Looking at the usual 2nd hand auction sites (cant afford new) and looking at under 300.

Think i have narrowed it down to-

Kewtech KT64.
Fluke 1653
Metrel MI3000.
Not really looked at megger.

Any opinions - guidance/suggestions? Thanks

If you can stretch the budget have a look at the new Di-Log units the 9110 is great for domestic testing. I went for the 9118 as I do loads of commercial industrial work. These units are fully 18th edition compliant. Build quality and functionality A1 I've been a fluke man in the past not any more. Every sparks has there own preference as to which tester they prefer

I bought a metrel eurotest combo MI3125 for well under 300 direct from metrel including calib cert. It was an ex demonstrator I think but sold with 12 months warranty. Been great..
I only got it ad a back up really as my MI 3100 needed repair. Metrel seem good value but i never used anyone elses..

I have my Megger 1710, Di log clamp meter, Fluke DMM and PRT in the for sale section for less than just the MFT if interested.
