The manual is very basic. There is a diagram, that's about as much info as you get.

Before the loop function is Line
I have the new style megger MET also. Select Loop on dial. Then you can toggle with arrow button to left of screen between 2 Hi, 3Lo and 2lo. These are 2 lead High current, 3 lead low current and 2 lead low current.
My tester is the same as this.
The Z loop setting on the dial is a high current test but has a sub setting of Z loop (RCD) which is a low current test.
The Z Line setting is also a high current test for Line-N and Line-Line impedance.
All three tests are described in the manual as three lead tests, and all three tests generate an automatic PFC value.
On the kewtech it describes the hi current test as a L-N test and uses the 1 and 3 connections on the tester (also labelled L and N)
It seems some people don't understand and think it means it is only for testing L-N
On all testers?

I couldn't get a reading, using an MFT1730 tester, using three wires. The tester would start to test but then stop and read >50V. I managed to get a reading using the 2 wire method.
Any ideas?
