Compact, rugged and with everything you need to test electrical appliances - Megger's PAT120 is an excellent PAT testing solution for any low volume PAT user such as shops, offices and anywhere else without a large amount of appliances to test.
Both a PASS/FAIL PAT checker and a full PAT tester, the PAT120 shows a tick/cross to indicate if an appliance has passed or failed a test and also shows a full testing reading simultaneously on the built-in backlit scratch-proof LCD screen. Test procedures can be easily accessed and activated using dedicated testing buttons underneath the screen and a built-in plug port makes connection easy.
Designed for easy transportation, the PAT120 is powered by standard AA batteries and can be used wherever you need it. The tester is fully suitable for use on class I and class II appliances, leads, extension leads and includes 250/500V insulation testing procedures that make the tester suitable for use on IT-based and surge-protected electrical equipment.
Worried about the tester getting damaged? With the PAT120 - you don't have to! It comes built into its own protective, heavy-duty carrying case with flip-down lid for protecting the screen and internal keys.
