Those vintage UK panel mount volt meters all looked very similar. That rough pebbledash finish makes me think it might be a Weir but that's just a guess. I've never seen a voltmeter with such a short needle, I think the end of it might have broken off.

Old test gear and vinyl records. Lovely.

That logo might be the company that bought it, not the manufacturer. It was common practice for big customers like power companies or the GPO for example to get items that might have been altered slightly to suit their needs and with their logo on it. The logo might also be as you say from an industry certification standards agency as well.

Please can someone buy this so I can stop being tempted! I have the BR4 in yellow plastic and the 18C in British Green, and I really don't need another one.... but it's so lovely and such an amazing machine and actually useful if your MFT batteries ever run out, and can do things no MFT can do....!

This is the stuff that the boss allows in the house.... I've been allocated one ikea compartment for "my junk"
The rest is in a box in the loft. I'm still trying to sell the idea of an illuminated shelf in a display cabinet, but we've been married 24 years and it hasn't become a 'major decision' yet. (We have this arrangement where minor decisions are her department and major ones are mine. In fact I'm not sure there have been any major decisions yet....)

I might have a job lot of old test equipment in need of repair. That would constitute a major decision for you.
My dad used to work as a manager at S.E.I. in the 60's and 70's, it was a part of G.E.C. and they used to make all sorts of stuff like this, we had one of these at home as the main test instrument.
He was always bringing home weird electrical stuff that they made, telephone PCB's, big capacitors, rectifiers, stuff like that. I used to enjoy charging the big caps up as a kid and also unwinding the foil wound capacitors. I used to go to work with him on a Saturday occasionally and there would be lines and lines of machines with women sat on them doing stuff like winding capacitors. The place had a very gritty industrial smell to it you that just don't come across nowadays.
