What about west of Scotland, we always get humped for delivery or companies refuse to do deliver?
A couple of bottles of your finest whiskey delivered to the checkpoint at Hadrian's Wall may help.

have a look at apc,yodel ups etcKnow this threads a bit old, but it is a sticky. I paid £70 at my wholesalers for my last calibration. This year, I was lucky/unlucky cos' my mft went faulty and had to go back to Megger, and was recalibrated then. Test Meter, how is collection arranged? I'm 50 miles away from my nearest DPD depot, and I struggled to return my mft to Megger under Royal Mails 2kg limit.

Give Test Meter a call. They'll arrange to collect from your home or workplace. They've got my MFT for calibration right now. (I wasn't planning on doing any work over the Christmas and New year hols.)
Elecsa may be happy with a calcard instead of getting the machine calibrated but Stroma aren't. They require you to have a calcard and get the MFT calibrated.
Perhaps its got something to do with NIC/Elecsa flogging Calcard and Stroma don't! PS: And Stroma do a calibration service.Elecsa may be happy with a calcard instead of getting the machine calibrated but Stroma aren't. They require you to have a calcard and get the MFT calibrated.
I can appreciate that time and location is key to some of you.
Don't shoot me down - I'm simply offering a service which is flexible, affordable and also takes the hassle away from you having to think about what courier to send a unit with, what insurance options are available etc.
As above, if you just want a sticker to satisfy annual assessment, please make sure you are keeping your own records of test results using a checkbox or dedicated circuit to make sure your test results are not deviating.
Perhaps not but in my opinion it's more reliable. A proper instrument calibration is like an mot.. A snapshot at one point in time. After being bashed about on its return journey it can all be a waste of time.. And money!An ongoing accuracy test is nothing like a proper instrument calibration which is conducted under controlled conditions (e.g. temperature). It is not intended to replace calibration.

Exactly what happens when I take my car for an mot!!A calibration is not like an MOT, an MOT is just a comparison against a standard. True calibration is the act of checking against a reference standard and the adjustment of the instrument to be correct.
