PAT AND MACHINE TESTERS

MI 3310A SigmaGT and MI 3309 DeltaGT

Portable RCD's type K; S; B, as well as most of electronic controlled extension leads can only be switched ON and tested when they are connected to the mains.
In case we already have RCD protection with equal nominal current (as the one we want to test) for primary protection of the object it can happen that we would trip out the main RCD instead of the one we would like to test.
To avoid tripping out of the main RCD, Metrel has built into its latest version of MI 3310 SigmaGT and MI 3309 DeltaGT testers the added functionality that allows performing tests of the above mentioned special equipment directly on the instrument (no external adaptors are needed ).
In comparison with other similar PAT testers MI 3310 SigmaGT has got the additional ACTIVE POLARITY function which enables user to build automatic test sequence that consist of Earth bond, insulation, leakage current, polarity and PRCD - test. This is a unique product solution in the market and a real time saver.

A 1207 3-phase Adapter

The A 1207 is an adapter for interfacing three-phase appliances to the mains test socket of appliance testers for measuring: 

  • insulation,
  • substitute leakage and
  • earth bond tests.

With this adapter testing of three-phase appliances is much safer, the test procedures are simpler and faster.

Example of connection of three phase appliance for Earth Bond test.
