MFT Calibration

telectrix · May 16, 2011

i called mike at on site calibration services. he arranged to call within 1 week, turned up on time, did the calibration, took about 90 mins. as there was a fault on the MFT (on continuity only), charged £50. emailed calibration cert that evening.no down time, no shipping costs. A1 service. highly recommended.

Both City's and Denmans do this........ always when you don't need anything calibrated!!!!

I use JW Instruments all the time and have never really had an issue, It sounds like you have had a poor experiance but i know the owner very well and he is a very genuine guy.
I hope though that you get your meter sorted soon, btw I have no connection to JW other than i know him and his family personally.

Arrived back today, almost 2 weeks so I'm not impressed, although I do agree it could just be a one off bad experience

Never again then!

No probably not, which is a shame as I always try and use the small guy where I can

look on the bright side. if you'd had it back last week you might have dropped it in a cesspit whilst testing.

If i had had it back last week i wouldnt have missed out on a PIR yesterday!

Theres a bloke called Gary Stevens, he is an Elecsa assessor, he has a cal set in his van, he will do it for you at assessment time for a fee. If i recall he is in the North Lincs, come South Yorks, Doncaster area somewhere near Hatfield or Thorne. Dont know if he advertises his services though.

Cheers........Howard
