Default Re: Inspection & Testing Equipment

Grew up with individual meters, pain to carry around three instruments and sets of leads

BUT

if one meter fails, at least you have still got the rest

personally use Meggers, got a batch of them

simple and easy to use, but one failed on PFC measurements, one failed on RCD checks

ok, megger replaced them sharpish, but i still lost all meter functions while they were away!

Fluke are probably a better meter (and you dont have to buy extra leads like with the Megger) but harder to get to grips with - lots of sub-buttons etc

there are cheaper meters out there, but they are cheap for a reason!!!!

you pays your money, you takes your choice
