High voltage safety is improved by competent people, disciplined procedures and reliable evidence. That evidence comes from electrical testing, measurement and condition monitoring technology engineers use to understand what is really happening inside critical assets. This is why Faraday Power Group Event #3, taking place on Friday 4th September 2026, matters more now than ever.

Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular, and with it comes the growing demand for reliable EV charging infrastructure. For electricians, installing a charger is only half the job. They also need to make sure that the chargers are safe to use.   This is particularly important for DC fast chargers, which operate at high voltages and require thorough testing before they are commissioned or put back into service.

Entry-level digital multimeters are ideal for quick checks, but they can become limiting once you start working on live systems, motor drives, HVAC equipment, control panels, or sensitive electronics. You may notice inconsistent readings, lower safety margins, or slower troubleshooting, and that’s usually the point where a basic meter becomes a bottleneck rather than a tool. So what comes next? How do you futureproof your next purchase? Read on to find out more…

Before adding electric vehicle chargers, heating, catering equipment, or other significant new loads to a site, one question needs a measured answer: how much spare capacity is actually available on the incoming supply?

Temperature is one of the most influential variables across the entire food and beverage production ecosystem. It directly influences product quality, shelf life, and safety at every stage – from raw material intake to final packaging. Even within well-managed environments, temperature can fluctuate due to equipment limitations, process variability, or external conditions.

The IET's 18th Edition Wiring Regulations have underpinned electrical installation practice in the UK since their introduction in 2018. Amendment 4 is the most significant update to BS 7671 since Amendment 2, and if you work in electrical installation, inspection, or testing, it directly affects how you work, what you specify, and how you demonstrate compliance. Here is what you need to understand before it comes into force.

We've teamed up with HIKMICRO to provide a 'trade-specific' free gift with every purchase of a HIKMICRO M-Series Thermal Imaging Camera at Test Meter (while stocks last).
