In need of a Tester to rent for installation testing

BozSparks · Nov 8, 2022

Hello, I am living in Belin, Germany

I am a qualified Electrcian from New Zealand and am in need of an insulation resistance tester/multi funktion tester. I am a bit skint at the moment because of unforseen circumstances and cant really afford one just yet as i dont practice electrical that often here in Germany. I am looking to rent if possible.

If there are any leads please contact me as soon as you can.

thanks

Would any electrical wholesalers be able to help out?

In UK some rent out large tools… or try tool hire places.

I suppose another option is considering buying separate 2nd hand loop tester, IR/Continuity tester and RCD tester. (not sure what German regs require for testing RCDs)
My thinking is that the 2nd hand market is full of them and the low cost price is a safer gamble than a 2nd hand MFT which is always a very scary gamble!

Plenty 2nd hand going on ebay. Buy A Megger 1700 series with a returns policy for less than £500

Thanks for all the replies.
Been pretty hard to find second hand here to be honest and renting one is impossible.

Still searching.

thanks though. will let you know if i find any information for those interested.
