Commonly acknowledged as MFT’s or installation testers, one of the many advantages of owning a multifunction tester is that you will no longer have to transport and change between using separate instruments in order to test electrical installations. One single multifunction tester can cater for all of the individual tests required by the BS7671 Wiring Regulations laid out below:
- Continuity
- Insulation Resistance
- Earth Resistance testing for ascertaining RA values where applicable
- Loop Impedance
- Line Impedance
- Prospective Fault Current and Prospective Short Circuit PFC/PSC
- RCD trip time and trip current
- Voltage and Phase Rotation
It is important to note that not all models offer every single test detailed above. Testing requirements vary depending on the installation and its environment so not all tests are always necessary.
With many different models of MFT available on the market, we appreciate that it can quickly become a confusing task narrowing down your choice to a single product.
