yes it does. if you google the spec., you can see what functions it has


.Kewtech KT64 Multifunction Installation Tester


doesn't seem to have ramp test. whilst not essential, this is a very useful functgion when tracing earth leakage faults and/or faulty RCDs.

Also does not appear to have a memory function, like the KT65 - Not that you will ever use it?

I have a kt65, the selector switch that you turn to the function you want has a mind of its own. Select IR and you get continuity half the time. I shant be buying another!
I like the flukes but service can be a nightmare if they break, apparently. I'll go for a megger next.

I'm not that experienced in these things...but I think what you want to be looking for in a Mutleyfunction Tester is EN61557 compliance, or at least compliance with the relevant parts thereof (4 for low ohms, 2 for IR, 3 for line and loop test, 7 for phase rotation, 6 for RCD). I think EN61557 compliance means everything you need to comply with is complied with.

My personal experience with Kewtech MFTs left me underwhelmed. Especially the one like a lunch box with a dial and LCD off a watch from Poundland stuck on the top. One hears bad things about the rotary selector switch reliability.

Cool. Don't forget to get it calibrated.
