Megger MFT1730 Multifunction Tester with FREE Accessories
This product has now been discontinued and replaced by the Megger MFT1731 Multifunction Tester.
The new top of the range Megger MFT1730 Multifunction Tester for all 17th Edition and Part P testing applications on electrical installations. The Megger MFT 1730 is a great electrical installation tester for electricians who want to test, certify or fault find on domestic and commercial properties. Tests included are supply measurement, continuity, insulation (including a 1kV insulation test), Zmax and R1+R2 loop testing and 10mA, 1A and auto RCD testing with an additional leakage current measurement option available.
In addition to this already comprehensive range of 17th Edition tests the Megger 1730 is also capable of True RMS AC and DC supply measurements, an extra 100V insulation test, 2 and 3 pole earth spike resistance testing and type 'B' RCD tests as found on many newer installations. An inbuilt and multi-layered memory is provided with the MFT1730 model and this tester has a Bluetooth download facility built in. Please note that Megger Poweresuite software is required to utilize the download or Bluetooth transfer facilities.
We also have another version the Megger MFT1730 On-site Multifunction tester which includes Powersuite software. The 1730 has been designed to continue working when connected across phases, when connected to a live circuit and when the incorrect range is selected making this one of the most reliable testers on the market.
