The standard of electrical safety testing at Lincoln-based Lincat, one of the world's leading producers of commercial catering equipment, has been improved with help from ClareHAL 104 from Seaward.

Lincat has introduced two HAL 104s on its production lines. The units, designed for fast and accurate electrical tests, are undertaking preprogrammed single phase testing to ensure compliance with BS EN 60335 and guarantee product quality, performance and reliability.

The instruments have been introduced to provide more uniformed testing; every appliance is tested for the same length of time and under identical conditions.This ensures standardisation throughout the test life cycle and with barcoding provided for improved traceability, any future quality issues can be quickly identified and rectified saving time and costs in the process.

Stephen Kendall, production engineer, expects to introduce more HAL 104s in future for faster and more accurate safety testing across the entire production process.

The device combines the performance of a multi-function production line safety tester with load and power factor measurement for product energy consumption and ratings assessment
