Megger tester repair

[Bubatronic]

Hi all

My Megger 1720 tester failed its calibration, can anyone recommend somewhere I can get it fixed? The place I had it calibrated were quoting £300 + vat and they’d have to send it away, I had to buy a new tester because I had my part p assessment so didn’t have time to get it repaired so don’t want to spend a fortune on getting it fixed because I want to sell it on afterwards, can anyone help?

Thanks

I would chance a conversation,with Megger's technical department.
There is a high probability it is where your calibration dudes,would send it.

Me too, send it to Megger.

I asked a well known MFT retailer, who said if it wasn't a simple fix, they would send it to Megger. Which meant being without for a good few days.

Think Megger's price is about £280 inc vat? Includes uncertified, but recorded calibration and firmware update.

Should be able to quote you for a repair and I think they buy broken ones too if you fancied that option.

Thanks for the info, just not sure it’s worth spending out getting it fixed, looking at what they go for second hand I’d be looking at about £50 to £100 in my pocket after the cost of repair. Does anyone know of anywhere that would buy it for spares or repairs?
