Megger good price?

[trypod]

The 1700 series came out in about 2010 to replace the 1550 series

the first 18 months of service had lots of issues until the firmware was V 1.09 or greater this solved most issues

Firmware V2.08 is the latest

We had 3 new 1720. All failed 1st year calibration. However as said above this seems to be sorted now.

 

[trypod]

The 1st year calibration of a 1700 series is best done by Megger so the firmware can be updated and any issues sorted under warranty
Megger calibration is about £65.00
