Kewtech KT71 PAT Tester

The Kewtech KT71 PAT Tester is a popular mains powered PAT Pester. It is Easy to use and great for low volume testing!

The Kewtech KT71 is great for in-house maintenance staff who conduct their own yearly PAT Testing. It is also suitable for electrical contractors who need to have a PAT Testing capability, but for whom it is not core for their business. Anyone can easily be trained to use this instrument with complete safety.

LED indicators give visual pass/fail indication with limits set in accordance with the IET (IEE) Code of Practice. This means that, in most cases, users will not have to interpret the results. However if you wish the Kewtech KT71 PAT Tester gives you the readings on the LCD screen.

When switching to live testing (in leakage current mode) audible warnings are given that the appliance is about to come live. A double button press is also required to safeguard against inadvertent switching on of an appliance.

PAT Testing with the Kewtech KT71

Class I Test
the Kewtech KT71 automatically goes through the test sequence, for example, it performs the sequence of an earth bond test at 200mA, followed by a check to see whether the user has not forgotten to switch the instrument on, then an insultation test.

The insultation test has a 250V or 500V option and the test sequence also has an option whether a leakage current test is done instead of an insultation test. This corresponds to the IEE Code of Practice which supports a leakage test where insultation tests cannot be safely conducted.

Class I 20A test
Performs the sequence of an earth bond test at 20A, followed by a check to see whether the user has not forgotten to switch the instrument on, then an insulation test.

The Kewtech KT71 insulation test has a 250V or 500V option and the test sequence has an alternative of a leakage current test instead of the insulation test.

This corresponds to the IEE Code of Practice which supports a leakage test where insulation tests cannot be safely conducted or are suspect.

Class II Test
The Class II sequence tests whether the appliance is switched on and then runs an insulation test. A leakage current test (touch current test) can be conducted as an alternative.

Leakage Current (Touch Current) Test
The Leakage Current Test is conducted at mains voltage, a load test and a leakage test is undertaken and the results are shown alternatively on the Kewtech KT71's screen. (Testing at mains voltage gives superior results than instruments that perform this by subsequent leakage tests).
