Voltage and Continuity Tester Recommendations

[Old Tiler 158106]

Hi all,

Firstly I am new to the forum, so will start by saying hi. I work as an electricians mate, and am joining the forum to gain experience.

I am looking to purchase a decent voltage and continuity tester that complies with GS38. The two I have considered so far are the Kewtech KT1780 and the Fluke T110.

Does anyone have any experience of either of these in terms of quality/reliability? Alternatively I would appreciate any recommendations for good quality kit that will last.

Many thanks in advance.

Had the single pole testing which is very handy

I have the Kewtech that I bought in an emergency when my trusty Fluke that lasted many years gave up.
It works!
It has single pole testing too btw (though this should not be relied upon to prove dead).
Single pole testing and showing phase direction are about the only features I look for.

To be honest anything mentioned in this thread will work. It's more important you get one of them than spend too much time philosophising over which, as it's a fundamental safety device!
