Megger CM500 Multifunction Installation Tester
The Megger CM500 Multifunction Installation Tester is a compact product tester that combines all the functions required to fully test domestic, commercial and industrial fixed wiring. The Megger CM500 Multifunction Tester is the first Installation Tester with a non tripping loop test guaranteed not to trip any RCD rated 30 mA or above. Tests on the Megger CM500 are carried out in accordance with International Standards, 17th Edition National Wiring Regulations BS7671:2008 and Euro Standard EN61557. With a large memory and storage capability, the Megger CM500 Multifunction Tester offers the ability to display, download and print data on site.
Test lead resistances can be nulled and a continuity buzzer is incorporated for rapid identification of open and short circuits. The Megger CM500 Multifunction Installation Tester has settable automatic polarity reversal and result averaging. Auto-ranging earth resistance function enables measurement of earth electrode resistance on TT systems.
Loop tests on the Megger CM500 Installation Tester are performed to a resolution of 0,01 ohms with direct display of PEFC and PSCC. This Multifunction Tester has a unique low current loop test with 0,1 ohms resolution for testing circuits protected by an RCD rated at 30mA or above, without tripping the RCD, including the newer electronic ones.
The Megger CM500 Multifunction Tester offers verification of the correct operation of RCDs rated between 10mA and 1000mA with trip timing up to 2000ms. A ramp test indicates actual trip current to aid in fault diagnosis and variable test current function enabling the testing of programmable and specialist devices.
Upon connecting the Megger CM500 Multifunction Installation Tester to the mains supply the polarity and voltage are displayed to show correct wiring of the socket under test and warn of live voltages. Supply frequency is indicated at the touch of a button.
