18th Edition amendment one. Volt drop measurement, who is spreading the rumour we need new testers?

Sparkingchip
Who is the test equipment manufacturer and/ or importer spreading the rumour that we will need new volt drop testers?


Out of interest I have tried an internet search for volt drop testers than can be used to test UK fixed installations and drew a blank with only testers suitable for use in the USA at lower voltages coming up in the search results along with results for auto electrics.

    You should not need a video to work out volt drop. The calculation is easy after measuring voltage and current. If it is included with the first amendment proposals, then it is trying to reinforce that electricians should already be confirming it, not entering the figures from a “design calculation” involving the tables from BS7671. 


    Regards,
