Incorporates range of tests

The latest addition to Seaward's range of portable appliance testers incorporates a range of safety tests to ensure workplace electrical equipment does not pose a danger to users.

The new hand held PrimeTest 250 is claimed to be the first electrical tester in its class to provide all the electrical tests required for compliance with the IEE Code of Practice for the In-Service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment.

Additional test capabilities include an RCD trip time test, a 3-phase leakage test and a 250V DC insulation test suitable for testing sensitive electrical appliances and surge protected leads.

All electrical safety tests are carried out against pre-set limits and a large display area gives a clear pass or fail indication, as well as digital test result values for those who require them.
