What earth leakage clamp meter to buy

[tgtworsley]

Hi

Looking to buy a earth leakage clamp meter. What one is best to get. It will be mostly for fault finding for rcd tripping off.

Thanks

One that measures mA's for RCD earth leakage faults on start up currents. (look at the fridge first lol)

I have the Megger DCM300, compact and very good, not sure if any do insrush currents as well as mA, i have a fluke for measuring inrush current.

You won't go far wrong purchaing this model from test meter. It's basically a rebadged DI Log model and has a resolution that betters some far more expensive manufactures offerings....

I've got a Fluke 360 that's very good.

What's the model number Geoff?

AMECaL ST-9810 Mini AC Leakage Current Tester (Equivalents: Earth, Clamp Meter) | eBay A mate of mine bought this recently and to be honest, I wish I had saved myself a bundle and done the same instead of the Fluke although this was not available then. I have run it side by side with my Fluke. At this price, there is no excuse why any sparks should not have an earth leakage clamp meter.
