Yes the megger 17xx defaulting to low current every time is annoying. Low current is good for nowt more than making observations IMO.
100% agree.
Also while on test leads, my Megger was acting up on continuity tests on multiple lead sets, a gentle tap with the pliers on the inserted test lead plug stops it - the "end" of the socket on the machine seems to need a connection and not so much the side? Time to pop it open I guess.
This may help
