Multifunction Tester Comparison Chart

[i=p/u]

and why not the 1730 for feew bucks more.. i must go on this comparrison chart.. its sounds the best

Must admit, after the taxman giving me some money back this year, i am finally giving up the bricks and looking at the 1720.

It cant be true...........:svengo:

what tax man giving money away or jason giving up the bricks!!??

J giving up the bricks of course...:indian_chief:

Yup, its time to put them on the antiques roadshow!:sifone:

Well, TBH i have two sets and one will end up on the bay, unless anyone else wants them.

Ill put them up for sale here first once i have my new one !

How does "put them up for sale here" work? I can't see an auction room here - do I need SpecSavers?

Also, when i watched the demo video, the chap said that this can measure earth leakage with an accessory clamp?

Anyone confirm this?

Ta.

ive heard ones saying the extra clamp can measure earth leakage,

whats the difference between 1720 and 1730

Megger's MFT1730 will do the following that the MFT1720 will not:

Measure insulation resistance at 100V,
Test type 'B' RCD's (DC Current RCD's),
Measure earth resistance with the additional option of a ground resistance kit (this comes as standard with the MFT1730 Onsite version),
Rechargeable

The optional clamp will operate with all of the 17xx series of testers, and can measure earth leakage. It is also rated to 100A if you need to measure a higher current range.

I hope this helps :yes:

Well, i put mine to use today, and i have to say, it seems very slow when doing EFLI tests, on non trip and high current.

Anyone else have a Megger MFT that does this?

Is it just me?

Ta!

I think MarkieSparkie has been in touch with Megger about this, this is his reply to another thread......


"In "No-trip" mode the Megger MFT electronics requires 3 wire L, N and E connections for power and reference so that the sophisticated method of noise cancellation that the Megger uses can resolve the impedance from the low level "No-trip" current pulses, even in an electrically noisy environment. It is because of this multiple current pulse and noise cancellation technique that the Megger gets unfair criticism from users of other MFTs (Fluke particularly) for it's apparently slow "No-trip" test, however, Megger users get the last laugh because they very rarely have their test inhibited by a noise error".

Do you not sell fluke meters? Nice table tho thanks

 

[jase]

is the metrel mi 3125 b software mac compatible? ( i probably know the answer already)
