Recommended test equipment

aligarjon

Hi guys.   I am thinking of retiring my Robin testers, sticky buttons.  Does anyone have any recommendations or don't touch advice.  I have always had individual testers but i guess the all in one testers are the way to go these days ?   I only do domestic work with an occasional social club or golf club inspection if that makes any difference.

Thankyou

    Always used Megger test equipment and its never let me down, replaced plenty of lead sets of course but thats par for the course.

    Always used individual meters, maybe its just my Scottish blood, but saw a technician drop his all singing all dancing multi function Blue tooth etc meter from top of a set of steps, and that was it no more work for him and totally useless as he couldnt do anything, also expensive to replace. Im aware individual meters will add up to more cost, but one going faulty out of calibration or I drop it, I can do other tests and conyinue to work and if damage on that individual meter is fatal, not so expensive to replace.

    Its really what suits you best and how you work.
