as you are a trainee, i'll discount you £5 and let you watch. can't say fairer than that. :sunglasses:
 
Currently studying at college my C&G courses. What would you recommend something like a Fluke T5-1000 be okay?
that would be OK for safe isolation and a rough guide as to voltage,amps and resistance measurements.
 
Hi mate.
Ok, the bust socket is fed from the FCU. Where does the FCU get it's feed from?
you seen this mega beast 4+ tons.
 
don'y buy anything till you have asked advice on this forum, so many trainees have bought inapproriate tools that lie in a toolbox waiting for the plumber to nick, coz he don't know how they work but he wants one.

I always ask on here first before buying something especially test equipment as it’s expensive.
 
a 2nd hand megger 1552/3 is cheap loads on ebay, but be sure it's calibrated and pay by paypal.
 
Open the socket and test it with a voltage tester socket testers are pretty useless for fault finding
 
To test properly you'll need to know how to use the instrument. Have a word with your tutor at college, maybe. See if you can borrow one from them, perhaps. Don't be messing if you're not up to it, though.
