PAT adaptor for 3-phase testing
Seaward has introduced a new adaptor to extend the range of electrical safety tests that can be carried out on 3-phase equipment.
In many cases this type of industrial equipment is fitted with electronic control circuitry which makes insulation testing inappropriate. In such cases the insulation should be assessed by measurement of the protective conductor current.
The new Seaward TPA test adaptor makes this possible and allows specialist factory, industrial and workshop equipment to be included as part of in-service inspection and testing protocols as required by the IEE Code of Practice.
The unit is available with 16A or IEC 60309/ BS4343 compatible plugs and sockets.
The TPA has been developed for use with the new Seaward PrimeTest 250 PAT and extends range of measurements that can be performed on 3-phase equipment using a lightweight and highly portable handheld tester.
