Quality


Last project was installing electric radiant heating and this tested the insulation perfectly.


I have tested it with a known 1gohm resistor and the reading was in the expected range given the rated tolerance of the resisto...  Read More


Based on my measurements and some calculations it passes the sniff testcons-inaccurately measures dc voltage as ac voltage depe...  Read More


This meter should output the rated voltage only into an "open" with no current flow.

Price


For the price the meter is outstanding.


No problem as this inexpensive unit is well worth six batteries.


I wanted a megger, without spending a zillion dollars on one to do basic troubleshooting of broken insulation on wires.


Conclusion:it seems like it should do the job for a dedicated insulation tester, and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Shipping


Also arrived on time with amazon prime.

Competitiveness


Even the supco 500 is twice the price and only has a goofy led light "display" and wimpy little wires for test leads.


Obviously there are better ones on the market but if you’re looking for a cheap megger then this is the want to buy i’ve had no...  Read More

    Cannot speak for accuracy but when used after a lightning strike the unit successfully identified problem circuits and unaffected circuits


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The instructions are lacking in clarity


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Need to conduct a megger test for a job was first and likely the only time need a unit to do it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This unit had all of the function of more expensive one


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The meter construction is good for the price and it functioned perfectly in helping locate where the insulation had broken down on the 120 vac circuit that was causing a circuit breaker to trip


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The instruction pamphlet is not very good but there is a tutorial on youtube that showed the operation


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was going on a quick project start up where they didnt have a megger at all
