UK MFT1711 for Pat testing

[amdei ltd]

Hi mall
I have an extension socket that I have soldered 3 plugs to.
I can test insulation and leakage with this and an Megger MFT1711.
I can null the lead.

Will only use for class 1

Can any see a problem?

but can you shove 20A down the appliance for earth continuity?

Variations of this mock-up are already patented as a "Widowmaker" for obvious reasons.
The most typical version being 2 x 13A plugtops to 1 x 32A socket.
The idiots that make and use them don't appreciate the danger of the exposed live pins when one plugtop is disconnected and I imagine are blissfully clueless of the risk that one day they may connect to two different phases and destroy their equipment.

Hi
I have 1 1 gang extension socket, three wires screwed into it. the other ends of the wires have soldered insulated banana plugs.
All this lead can be nulled.

@amdei ltd what you have pictured may work, but it does not conform to GS38
