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

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.

  • My Megger LTW320 three wire loop tester has a buried function which enables it to display the voltages between conductors when it realises there is a problem with the neutral conductor. All three polarity indicating LEDs light up and the display indicates the voltages between the conductors in sequentially.


    So although it doesn’t display it on regular testing it is monitoring the neutral and will flag an issue.
