Kewtech KT61 Test Meter

[mcummins7]

Hi folks,

My KT61 test meter does not appear to be working on it's RCD test function. I've tried it out on a few new 30mA RCD's and it doesn't trip them, even on the 5x setting!

Any ideas on the cheapest way to get it tested and/or repaired?

Could try at the link below, if its less than three years old the will repair it under warrenty as long as the fault is not of your making.

Thanks. I'll give them a bell in the morning.

The tester was not sending any trip current out - repaired now and calibrated by Kewtech support for only £60 + VAT. Very good service and much better than these cowboy internet companies offering repairs and calibration for not less than £95 plus VAT plus parts etc etc.....

Lets start at the beginning here, cos this is something that gets me at least once a week!

Are you sure your tester is set to 30mA, not 10mA? And if it is on 30mA, is the RCD you're testing isn't 100ma?

EDIT: I'm really not reading well this morning. Glad you got it sorted.
